LYRICS:
The old enemies are dead and gone,
long gone my friend
You are like the boy who cried wolf
A voice buried in another decade's fears
and the songs you sang, to what end?
We are the ghosts among the ruins
Without history without nations
We are the ghosts among the ruins
Without faces without names
How you silenced with joy
the words of noble men
Tear down the statues you cried
and burn the books
Strike their deeds from history
and turn the clocks to nought
Let year zero begin on my watch
We are the ghosts among the ruins
Without history without nations
We are the ghosts among the ruins
Without a future

MANY THANKS FOR THE LYRICS. QUESTION REMAINS...THE VIDEO WAS SHOOTING IN ROMANIA? THANKS FOR YOUR PROMPT FEEDBACK.

[@ClaiomhProductions]

It was shot in Ireland at an undisclosed location near Dublin - thanks for your interest.

[@rothbardfreedom]

I think these lyrics has some extras words and missing some lines. The "you've prayed for me" lines, e.g.

[@freeparadiselostbwg5542]

MANY THANKS FOR PROMPT FEEDBACK.

[@adhominem_]

But lyrics are not correct in some part...

[@_kud]

The end of the song is so powerful. I can't even.

[@daniellongo7873]

Such a great song with great lyrics too. I just love the atmosphere of it

[@timothyhadrian7187]

Great Song, I am enjoying all these new songs from Primordial so far. This video means a lot to me and I love how it is a depiction of early I.R.A

[@user-tt8fg3dd4c]

One of my top favourite songs from my favourite band....no words

[@LaughingMan44]

whether or not it has an intended meaning, the lyrics seem to be very relevant to what's happening in the West, especially considering another song on the album is more explicit.

[@traganosdellas1980]

υπέροχο............

[@littleblackpistol]

Stunning, stunning, stunning. Song, video, performances, everything. Gold.

[@gbuhnoezqayusioehf]

A music straight from the guts and souls of true artists.

[@axeljusseit5924]

Great job; song and video. Kind of hard to watch, makes a huge impact. Good choice not having a "splatter-ending", way stronger this way. Respect to everyone, who worked on this.

[@nareiKWhi7]

I am moved beyond words..the black and tans shot my great uncle dead outside the courthouse in Cashel. .

[@Dopec21]

Brilliant song guy's really loving it

[@monos33]

C'est primordial de l'avoir sur le pre-order !

[@orora667]

[@blknd13]

not black metal anymore? never been? Primordial: my ultimate favorite band, critically the best band,; and one with their lyrics? Yes... puts em with only a handful of long running bands since 1st wave times. prʌɪˈmɔːdɪəl

[@robertbreton3954]

Primordial is Pagan metal, as always (Alan prefers this etiquette). I agree that Primordial is number one on my list, like you say.

[@AlbuerneDoom]

They seem more Doom Metal in each new album!! Great!!

[@laszloszabados8179]

Excellent

[@aleksadimitrijevic5995]

Primordial, welcome back. Amazing, as always, and that's an understatement. Thank you for being so goddamn good

[@borulvsson5268]

Awesome!!!!

[@gurkanuzunpnar8396]

This reminded me the "grave scene" from Peaky Blinders' season 2 finale. Very nice song with fine dark melodies as usual, I'm excited for the new album.

[@FurFoxSakeFML]

Reminds me of Loits - Haavad Uulitsal, great tune too

[@jayderocker9668]

303rifle , that can take a cow down at 1000m in it’s day

[@malagutiamp7590]

We can tell that the executioner is a "tough gangsta" by the way he holds the gun.

[@PatoIzquierdo]

@Freetobewhoibe brought me here! He did an amazing review of the whoel album.

[@akharjair8047]

nice song guys

[@wolfmanjim169]

Up the RA Not the terrorists of the 60s and 70s and on Who bomed innocent Irish women and children But the brave men and women of 1919 Who suffered, fought, and died for Irish freedom, no matter who agreed with them Tiocfaidh ar la Erin go bragh

[@jayderocker9668]

I’ve served , and to be fair I understand both sides of the coin .. fair play to us both 😎 🇬🇧

[@freeparadiselostbwg5542]

METAL BLADE RECORDS Thanks ! JUST A SIMPLE QUESTION THE VIDEO WAS SHOOTING IN ROMANIA? THANKS PRIMORDIAL !

[@miluta7]

nope, Ireland

[@freeparadiselostbwg5542]

MANY THANKS FOR PROMPT FEEDBACK. MERSI.

[@commanderfox0123]

Yes Luger p08 and c96

[@ClaiomhProductions]

Well spotted = both are originals from the 1910's.

[@squeesmyth9025]

uppa IRB

[@jamesmacoisdealbhaigh9904]

Alan is a free- stater executed by the IRA or am I wrong on this? great track tho and much better than "To hell or the hangman" in my opinion.

[@timothyhadrian7187]

Yes, this video depicts early I.R.A members executing a British Soldier.

[@jamesmacoisdealbhaigh9904]

It looks more like an Irish free state than a British uniform.

[@timothyhadrian7187]

The bald guy getting executed is in an early British uniform, and the 3 Irish fighters are in early I.R.A outfits. I know what I'm talking about especially because it Is MY OWN PEOPLE!

[@jamesmacoisdealbhaigh9904]

You're own people? I'm Irish and the uniform Alan is wearing looks a lot like the uniform worn by the Irish Free State Army.

[@The-Endungeoned]

James Costello yes dude it is much better. I'm not Irish nor British but I'm pretty sure MacAmlaigh pretends to be the traitor.

[@claudineifrancisco8033]

🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘👍👍👍👍👍

[@MetalMinded2011]

An instant like. However somehow less heavy than what we're used to - hope it's not an attempt to capture further audiences by diminishing the metal element. In fact I would want to hear this in the "old", dirtier and more distorted Primordial sound.

[@garonasaki1891]

God

[@blknd13]

dead

[@timothyhadrian7187]

Gods

[@LaughingMan44]

Amen

[@januszjankes6423]

Muza spoko dająca różnorodne brzmienie jest ok 👌 👍 🎸 gitar basu i perkusji i vocalu także 👹👿😈🤘🤘🖤🖤.

[@harsen]

I'm so pissed at the Mexican guy

[@kaoshjerte]

Arsen Hakobyan what Mexican guy?

[@The-Endungeoned]

Arsen Hakobyan I'm pissed at the Argentinean guy.

[@ghandi1387]

Is this what Pearse and Connolly died for? System of a down vocals from a man covered in bog water and looks like he belongs in black veil brides?

[@furorteutonicus1861]

adam taylor What?

[@Draclord35]

I think he means Primordial is a disgrace because this clip shows the dark side of the IRA (and I would strongly disagree, Primodrial was awesome and the IRA did some shady shit).

[@patmullins8858]

Great video and the album is too much better than the last couple of albums
