Primitive Weapons carries forth the tradition of this original post-hardcore spirit but does so in a thoroughly forward-charging way, bearing no shred of retro-glorification. Primitive Weapons is a modern-day beast, a hybrid of soaring wings and gnashing teeth. Sophomore album The Future of Death is an eight-song thrill ride, full of tribal thunder, hard grooves, dire screams, luminous guitars, and massive, mournful choruses that haunt for days. The Future of Death was recorded and mixed by Dean Baltulonis (Madball, Modern Life Is War) at The Wild Arctic, and mastered by Dave Gardner (Black Lips, Rocket from the Crypt) at Magneto Mastering. The cover and layout were created by Zev Deans, who also directed the video for the album's first single, "The Electric Drama," as well as videos for Chelsea Wolfe, Ghost, and Portal.
