Eternal Hotfire is the debut album by cult garage rock band The Primevals, originally released in 1985 and now remastered with 11 bonus tracks.

Formed in Glasgow in 1983 by lead singer and songwriter Michael Rooney, the brooding five-piece combined hi-octane, revved-up garage rock with a dusting of blues, R&B and even jazz influences. Eternal Hotfire was originally issued by esteemed French imprint New Rose as a six track mini-album. Bonus tracks on this expanded remaster include non-album singles Living In Hell and Where Are You?, along with rare demos and compilation tracks plus four scorching numbers recorded live at the infamous Klub Foot in London.

"The Primevals formed to try out something earthy and uncompromising," explains Rooney. "Glasgow was full of bands looking to land a record deal with bland, insipid music. We just wanted to make some noise but with good tunes - and the Clyde as our Delta! I wanted to somehow try and crystallise influences from some the first 45s I bought - Kinks, Animals, Stones etc, as well as later garage punk like The Stooges and The Cramps. When the band jam we try to combine these different styles and get close to that jazz ethic, something like Pharoah Sanders fused with MC5."
