Released via Metal Blade Records last month, the record debuted at #24 on Billboard’s Top New Artist Chart, #43 on Billboard’s Top New Artist Chart, #104 on Billboard’s Independent Albums Chart, and offers some of the band’s deepest, most conceptually profound and wildly epic compositions to date, continues to floor fans and critics worldwide.

Tracked at Grouse Lodge in Dublin with Jaime Gomez (Cathedral, Angelwitch, Grave Miasma),PRIMORDIAL‘s “Where Greater Men Have Fallen” is an eight-track, fifty-eight minute masterwork Stereogum dubs “almost Maiden-esque in its majesty” driven by the compelling vocal urgency of Averill, who Pitchfork crowns, “one of the most captivating bandleaders in metal.”

PRIMORDIAL will bring their sonic savagery to stages throughout Europe in the coming weeks with additional live ceremonials to be announced soon.
