Primitive Man announce new album ‘Immersion’

PRIMITIVE MAN have announced a new album!

Titled Immersion, the upcoming album from the American doom metal band is their third full length-effort and is scheduled to be released in August this year, via Relapse Records.

Adding to the album’s doom metal darkness, a pervasive lyrical anxiety erodes throughout Immersion. A stark look at a mirror, Immersion‘s themes tackle sobering views on existential crises, a general distrust among another, and the current state of the world. “Souring your view on your existence and everything you had worked towards. Allowing you to become possessed by the darkest parts of your mind that you have carried around your entire life and not dealt with,” guitarist/vocalist Ethan McCarthy elaborates.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for the first song to be lifted from the upcoming album; titled The Lifer. Speaking about the new song, McCarthy says, The Lifer is about being cursed with and unable to shed the desire to create. The lack of financial security that comes with that. It is also about the ever-present on the road psychosis touring musicians get as well as the enemies you meet along the way.”
