We finally have the new album in the can and are ready to announce that the new Prymary album entitled "The Enemy Inside" will be released through ProgRock records on November 17th. We are taking pre-orders now or you can download it through Mindawn.
"The Enemy Inside" is the long awaited 3rd album from Prymary. This time around shows Prymary transcending their past achievements and creating a collage of stories that are independent and yet united in the themes of self-destruction and dreams unfulfilled. Musically the band shows a further refinement of songwriting and musicianship with songs that are more concise in musical statement, while still having the grand arrangements that Prymary is known for. As is becoming a Prymary trademark, the band has once again given special attention to combining music and lyrics together to convey the mood or feel of the song. This is simultaneously the heaviest, technical, most prog, and emotional Prymary album to date.
PRYMARY is a melodic progressive rock/metal band from Southern California and consists of Jackson Heskett (Vocals), Sean Entrikin (Guitars), Rob Young (Bass), Neil McQueen (Keyboards), and Chris Quirarte (Drums) . The band debuted on the scene in 2003 with its self-titled album and opened for bands such as Fates Warning, Kamelot, and King's X. 2003 also marked the first out of state performance at the renowned ProgPower Pre-Party Festival in Atlanta, Georgia. In 2005, the band travel to Amsterdam, Holland for their first European performance at the Headway Festival. Prymary signed to ProgRock Records in 2006 and released the sophomore concept album, "The Tragedy of Innocence" to rave reviews. The band played live extensively before setting about the task of writing a new album. Entitled "The Enemy Inside", the album is a further refinement of the bands sound, mixing the more adventurous playing with an emphasis on strong, more concise musical statements. 2009 is the year of rebirth for Prymary as the band unveils a new line-up and looks to new sounds to explore.
PRYMARY PRESS RELEASE
(6/29/09)
It has been an exciting and fruitful time for us here in the Prymary camp. There has been a lot of activity and plenty of surprises. We have a new album currently in the beginning stages of mixing and a release date coming soon.
However, it is my sad duty to announce that Smiley Sean has decided to leave Prymary and go back to school to pursue a career in film scoring. Although he would have liked to have continued in the band, the demands of school and Prymary would have been all but impossible. We fully support him in his new endeavor and wish him the best of luck. Smiley will still be involved behind the scenes with production and engineering.
Coming in to replace Smiley will be Neil McQueen who comes in with a wealth of studio and live experience. Neil's contributions to the group add a wealth of creativity and freshness to the group. On vocals to replace Prymary's former vocalist Mike DiSarro will be Jackson Heskett. Jackson is a bustling live musician and brings his tremendous vocals to the group. On bass we have Rob Young who has played live with the band since 2006. All of these talented musician's join Sean and I in rounding out our line-up.
We will be making our live debut with this line-up on August 1st in Huntington Beach, California. More details to follow. Thanks to everyone for supporting us through our time of need. It has been 2 long years since we have played live and we are really looking forward to it. All we can say is it's good to be back.
