Primordial, Part 1

Show Notes

Ireland isn't a country often associated with the extreme metal scene. But there is one notable exception... Primordial. The struggles and oppression they have overcome as a people is clearly felt through Primordial's lyrics, songwriting and imagery. Similar to the "viking metal" movement, they have used national pride and history as a basis for their entire career. In this first part we explore their first four records.
