PRIMORDIAL

7th album from 2011 by the Irish PRIMORDIAL, one of the most distinctive, respected and influential bands in European Pagan Metal. “Redemption at the Puritan's Hand” arrived in the wake of the immense acclaim received by “To the Nameless Dead”, further confirming the band's unique ability to blend pagan epicness, melancholy and emotional intensity into a sound unlike any other in extreme Metal.

Darker, more introspective and emotionally charged than much of the band's previous work, the album unfolds through lengthy compositions filled with drama, twilight atmospheres and an outstanding vocal performance from Alan Averill "Nemtheanga". Lyrically focused on mortality, decline and the human condition, “Redemption at the Puritan's Hand” is regarded by many fans as one of the most mature and profound releases in PRIMORDIAL's catalogue, firmly establishing the band as one of the leading forces in contemporary epic Metal.

Recommended for fans of MOONSORROW, SOLSTAFIR, MAEL MÓRDHA and FALKENBACH.
