US hardcore punk pirates, PRIMATE, featuring members of BRUTAL TRUTH and MASTODON, have locked down a Winter (for them that is) assault on the South Pacific this January, with a week-and-a-half of soiling venues across Japan, Australia and New Zealand now on their calendar. Watch in horror as the henchmen brutally dispatch their unhinged and malicious grindcore-infused auditory wrath upon these three nations.
The sound: Just think raw, hardcore brutality and a solid blend of stoner grind meets Swedish/Japanese hardcore...
The vision: Kicking ass and flinging poo....

Kevin Sharp (Brutal Truth) - vocals
Mike Brennan - guitars
Bill Kelliher (Mastodon) - guitars
Dave Whitworth - bass/vocals
Shayne Huff - drums
