PRIMITIVE MAN is an American Metal Band formed in 2102 in Denver, Colorado USA, their style is Grudge, Doom Metal Noise; one thing is for sure, they have a very heavy sound indeed but whether that is enough I am not quite sure.
PRIMITIVE MAN have produced so far a full length album called
"Scorn" and a few EPs, demos, singles and splits and now another EP on a Vinyl format with four songs, the result is a bad sounding EP with lots of distortion and also very dirty sounding, I am sure Relapse could have done better than that.
First track
"Loathe" starts off very slow and heavy and then picks up a little; the vocalist is trying very hard and the result is a more Death Metal approach which is fine by me, though, eleven minutes song not much has happened so I become very bored
"Downfall" is a better song though, much faster with twisted riffs and more technical, still I am still left wanting, it is brutal but that is not enough to cheer me up,
"Bag Man" follows the same path, lots of strange noise and nothing much changes, I mean there are tonnes of bands out there sounding just the same or worse. The last track
"A Marriage With Nothingness" I just don't get; a poor woman screaming throughout the whole song and whether she is enjoying it or not it doesn't matter, what matter is that this is a poor effort from
PRIMITIVE MAN, It lacks creativity and I do not see any positive points in this album, the production is crap and the art cover is pure tedium, truly primitive.
