For Primortal the band worked with producer Sterling Winfield (Pantera, Mercyful Fate). According to guitarist Brian Villers - "Sterling, our producer, kind of came in, and he took a listen to what we had, and he just felt like getting in and tearing things apart and rearranging stuff and slowing some stuff down." [6] The album falls less into the death metal range and closer to hard rock.
