Review by illusionist for Primordial - To the Nameless Dead (2007)

A breathtaking album that seamlessly blends the pride and suffering of Irish/Celtic history with black metal and doom metal.

All of the music on To The Nameless Dead is full of emotion, gravity, and a salt-of-the-earth brand of epicness. Not "epic" in the overblown manner of some folk metal bands... It's just pure soul-crushing epic music. 

The passion Primordial has for their music and for their history (the primary lyrical subject) is readily apparent and is what makes this such an enticing listen. The vocals, the glorious guitar riffs, the engaging songwriting...all of it comes together to make this beautiful album work. This is what every folk/pagan band wishes they could be. Each and every song is a masterpiece, save the pointless interlude.

Now I shall end this review with a closing remark:

I'm a HEEEEATHEN!!!! SEARCHING...FOR HIS..... SOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUULLLLLL!
