According to a press release, "the band's sixth effort is a timeless statement and an ode to their forefathers which lives and breathes the ancient spirit mixed with anger, pain and despair. Harsher and faster than its predecessor, To The Nameless Dead wasn't recorded digitally - just analog to keep the sound old school and powerful. The album will also be available as limited first edition in a digi book featuring another design, 40 pages and a bonus CD of Primordial's performance at the Rock Hard Festival."
Says frontman A. A. Nemtheanga: “To The Nameless Dead is defiantly at odds with a modern metal scene that often seems to place banality, mediocrity and safety above passion, honesty and truth”
