Earth is an influential American drone metal band formed in 1989. Known for their slow, heavy soundscapes and minimalist approach to music, Earth has been a driving force in the development of the genre. Led by guitarist Dylan Carlson, the band's music is characterized by its atmospheric and meditative qualities. With a discography spanning over three decades, Earth continues to push boundaries and captivate audiences with their unique sonic landscapes.

Throughout their career, Earth has collaborated with various artists from different genres, including Kurt Cobain of Nirvana. Their groundbreaking album "Earth 2: Special Low Frequency Version" is widely regarded as one of the most important releases in drone metal history.

With their distinct sound and innovative approach to music, Earth has garnered a dedicated fan base worldwide. Their live performances are known for creating an immersive experience that transports listeners into another realm. Whether you're a long-time fan or new to their music, exploring Earth's discography is sure to be a captivating journey through the depths of sound.

Primitive And Deadly, is EARTH's tenth studio collection. Dylan Carlson and long term cohort, drummer Adrienne Davies, manage to pull off the trick of completing an Ouroborean creative cycle, twenty-five years in the making, whilst exploring new directions in their music. For the first time in their diverse second act, they allow themselves to be a rock band, freed of adornment and embellishment. As much as Carlson's guitar has always been the focal point of EARTH's music, it's been surrounded by consistently diverse instrumentation. Here the dialog between Carlson and Davies drumming remains pivotal, underpinned by the sympathetic bass of Bill Herzog (Sunn O))), Joel RL Phelps, Jesse Sykes and the Sweet Hereafter) and thickened by additional layers of guitar from Brett Netson (Built To Spill, Caustic Resin) and Jodie Cox (Narrows). Perhaps the largest left turn on Primitive And Deadly, though, is prominence of guest vocalists Mark Lanegan and Rabia Shaheen Qazi (Rose Windows) who transform the traditionally free ranging meditations of EARTH into something approaching traditional pop structures.
