A Primitive Evolution Debut Album $10.00
11 Track Music CD
Everything about A Primitive Evolution boils down to instinct. From their roots in Toronto's cult rock scene to their unrivaled, uninhibited stage show, this band takes hard rock and grunge and then pumps groove and sex back into it. Encapsulating the best of horror and romance, A Primitive Evolution is gearing up to release their debut album A.P.E. on December 3rd 2009 containing 11 tracks of drippy rock'n'roll.
Formed in the fall of 2007 out of the ashes of Lye, vocalist Brett Carruthers and bassist Steph Seki began jamming with Playdead Cult owner and drummer Stu Playdead. Playdead's involvement in horror culture lead to inviting guitarist and owner of Toronto's Darkside store Dimitri Anastasakis to jam along. They performed as part of the Queen Street Fire fundraiser alongside Billy Talent and the Creepshow. What initiated as fun turned into an organic drive to create something fresh - something with its own experimental ideas.
Produced by Carruthers and Matthew Von Wagner of Alpha Galates, the album A.P.E. is grounded on a few common themes. "Death on Wheels" draws inspiration from classic grindhouse horror films, while others like "Dead End" are really thinly veiled love songs. "War B." explores political undertones and the Western view of war. "Beyond True" and "Still Waiting" draw influences of Radiohead and U2 along with an amped up feel uniting the main themes of the album and capturing the romanticism of human interaction.
