Ethan from Primitive Man has been doing cool stuff in Denver for a long time. From running BlastOMat back in the day to his various bands including the amazing Clinging to the Trees In a Forest Fire. He's continued that with Primitive Man and always being a champion of the Denver scene.
This was the 2nd D.A.D Fest and it showcased a whole bunch of Denver's best underground metal, doom, grind, and heavy bands. Including In The Company Of Serpents, Deer Creek, Spectral Voice, City Hunter among others. Plus a slew of other bands that placed across the street at Mutiny Information Cafe earlier in the day. Denver is ground zero for some great musical talent. Metal and otherwise.
Primitive Man are off on an around the world tour at the moment. Having just finished a European leg than over to play in Japan with Weekend Nachos. Serious road dogs. They tour a lot. If you get a chance to see them live don't miss it.
Not for the faint of heart though. My hippy friend saw Primitive Man open up for Sleep back in 2015 and he said they made him sad. They do play an oppressively, almost suffocating, brand of noisy doom so I can see that reaction from some. But for me it takes me to a happy place.
Here is their set at the end of D.A.D. fest. Only 30 minutes but they make the most of it. I think the recording turned out nice. Enjoy.
