Ireland's @primordial_official will hit @academydublin on October 18th to play a very special setlist based on the 3 classic albums 'Spirit The Earth Aflame', 'The Gathering Wilderness' & 'To The Nameless Dead'. Special guests @saormusic & more TBA.
Bosh!
Surely not in full..? Very tempting nonetheless!
Excitement got the better of me. :laugh:
That looks like it will be a night of fun.
Deadly. Could've immediately done better than fuckin Saor as support though.
Saor..yes..this will be mint
Saor was all the rage for a few weeks about 10 years ago then everyone just stopped talking about them :laugh: . A very poor man's Auld Ridge.
Three best albums for me.
This will be very tempting.
I might tag along
Got a ticket there, 2014 was the last time I saw them so looking forward to this setlist. I've never seen Saor before.
Yeah, I'll go to this all being well. Think Spirit/Storm/Gathering would be the better trio but can't complain really. They'll only play one song I don't like (As Rome Burns) instead of only playing 2 or 3 that I do like if it was a regular current day setlist.
I wouldn't have Saor in the same breath as the majestic Auld Ridge, Micko. I've seen them a couple of times and it's that vague atmospheric stuff I think, like Winterfylleth. The first album the guy did,Askival, showed promise but clearly went down a different path after that one.
Could be a great night. Gigs are rare for me these days. The Foggy was good craic for Emperor last year so hopefully more of the same buzz for this. Might run in to Chris again and actually recognise him this time!
Just got ticket there..have new saor album on as well now it's a cracker...all their albums are a great listen in fairness
Assuming they play it, worth it alone for "The Coffin Ships"
I'm gonna say that's been every Primordial gig since 2005.
I'd say that's a safe bet. Would be fine if they didn't play it at this one.
Ah that's a great song
It is of course. I'm not challenging that.
But sure you'd want to see it live again wouldn't you
:laugh: I've seen it plenty. If it's taking the place of any other song on TGW or Spirit, I'd happily swap it out.
I think the gathering wilderness title track is great hope that gets a spin
Just realized I'll be back in Ireland for this. I'm only a very recent Primordial convert so will head along (Storm before Calm turned it around for me), from memory they've had some decent support in the pass so hopefully someone better than Saor is announced, Malokarpatan would do the trick :abbath:
Random question but how come Paul hasn't been playing bass live with Primordial?

Some sort of injury, not sure of the details.
He fucked his shoulder.
That's a good trick. Must be flexible.
:laugh:
It has been a long time since I have seen Primordial live so I think I will head to this.
Hoping the support ends up as good as last time in Dublin.
The other support I know of is savage but Saor still ruin it for me. Absolute nothing band.

Any hint?
Afraid not.
Afraid not... a frayed knot... the frayed ends of sanity... is it... Metallica??? Holy shit.
Is it Metallica?
Keep it to yourselves.
