Delivering The Black

If you are talking about today's top European heavy metal acts, then the discussion will most certainly involve Germany's Primal Fear. Former Gamma Ray vocalist Ralf Scheepers and bassist/vocalist Mat Sinner, two of the most respected German metal musicians, founded the band in late 1997. With nine studio albums released, two live releases and a Best Of compilation, Primal Fear are certainly one of the most beloved and respected Heavy Metal bands around the globe. Their last studio album 'Unbreakable' was their highest chart entry in Germany at Position 31 and charted in 7 other countries.

'Delivering The Black' combines the strongest elements of the band with a well-balanced typical Primal Fear trademark riff-vibe, crushing songs and some very ambitious musical journeys. The centerpiece of the album is the two epic tracks 'When Death Comes Knocking' and the 10 minute opus 'One Night In December', spiced with big orchestral arrangements and complex sound designs.

Classic and ultra-fresh Primal Fear riff-rockers like the title track, the album opener 'King For A Day' or the groove monsters 'Alive And On Fire' and 'Road To Asylum' hit the bulls-eye just like the untamed speed killer 'Rebel Fraction. The outstanding ballad 'Born With A Broken Heart' shows a new side of Primal Fear with an acoustic guitar vibe and the addition of Liv Kristine (Leaves' Eyes) on backing vocals.

Primal Fear are about to release their strongest album ever: 'Delivering The Black'.
