#20. Earth – Primitive & Deadly
What a giant, punishing, seductive, and beautiful album. It’s difficult to talk about Earth’s music without utilizing a w i d e s c r e e n, ALL CAPS approach that showcases just how vibrant and irreducibly mountainous this band’s legend and corresponding catalog has become since their conception in 1989. Early albums such as Earth 2 and Phase 3 were touchstones in the burgeoning genre of drone/ambient metal, while more recent material such as the organ-heavy The Bees Made Honey in the Lion’s Skull zeroed in on dustier, more cosmic-country terrain. Their new record, Primitive & Deadly, finds the band revisiting their heavier roots, encapsulating everything that is so glorious and powerful and dead-on about the band’s career-long ability to cultivate deep desires and passions in a listener that may have otherwise remained dormant for a lifetime. Yes, the album is undeniably apocalyptic in scope, size and ex*****on, but the band’s palate here is so rich and evocative that you can’t help but be hypnotized by its dreamier aspects. Bright, ringing harmonics and wooly, perfectly sustained open chords abound on this album, and with the long overdue addition of vocals courtesy of gravel-voiced, one-time grunge rocker, Mark Lanegan, and fresh-faced psych chanteuse, Rabia Shaheen Qazi (of Rose Windows), on key tracks, the record proves to be a melting pot of swaggering, soulful, and ultimately transformative heavy rock music. When Shaheen Qazi sings “it’s all over now” on the saturnine centerpiece “From the Zodiacal Light”, you hope the band’s resurgence as the most potent of doomsayers/slingers has only just begun.
