One gets the impressions that home did indeed have a whole lot of hatred when Primitive Man were growing up.ĩ. Armageddon – Captivity & Devourment (Listenable)

Primitive Man – Home Is Where the Hatred Is (Relapse) Painless hits the spot now, sure, but it’s the promise of what could come later that truly excites me (starting with the recently released Heavy Over the Home, streamable here).ġ0. Besides, this is exactly the kind of band that, given a little investment and space to grow, will evolve into something completely their own. But given the dearth of bands these days doing exactly that - and how fucking good at it Sanzu are - we give these Aussies a pass.
