Primitivity PLAYS MEGADETH FOR CELLO salutes the state-of-the-art metal band Megadeth by reinventing eight passionate tracks through the intense and beautiful sound of the cello. The album resurrects such Megadeth classics as Symphony of Destruction and Train of Consequences and redefines them for cello. Thick power chords resonate through the opening of Skin O My Teeth, and lush harmonies permeate the choruses of Addicted to Chaos and À Tout Le Monde. Speeding riffs and blistering solos reign during Hangar 18, and deep emotions are summoned during Foreclosure of a Dream. Arranged, recorded and performed solely by cellist Loren Westbrook-Fritts, Primitivity PLAYS MEGADETH FOR CELLO is passionately driven and uncompromising in its intentions to bring to life the music of Megadeth through the unique voice of the cello.

PRIMITIVITY is a cello and percussion ensemble from Washington DC that blends elements of classical and heavy metal music into a new genre called cello rock. Cellist Loren Westbrook-Fritts composes the music and provides the leads, while cellists David Teie of the National Symphony, Kristin Ostling of the Baltimore Symphony, and Mauricio Betanzo of the Maryland Symphony all shred out intense riffs and harmonies. Percussionist Robby Burns from the University of Maryland completes the band with rumbling drum hits. Specializing in the music of Megadeth, Apocalyptica, and Metallica, Primitivity performs its own original compositions in an undeniably unique concert program. As Primitivity blends refined classical approaches and the new sounds of heavy metal, it ensures that rock cello thrives forever.
