Primevil

Primevil was an American rock band in the 1970s. In 1972 they recorded their only single, Too Dead To Live. Their only album, Smokin' Bats at Campton's, has been described as "a bona fide stoner rock touchstone". It was released in 1974 and reissued on CD in 2006. Cleopatra Records issued the first, official U.S compact disc and vinyl reissues of the album in December 2023 and January 2024, respectively. In 2007, the group was mentioned in an article in Classic Rock magazine titled "The Lost Pioneers of Heavy Metal". Lead guitarist and band leader, Jay Wilfong, returned in 1980 with the blues power-trio, Buccaneer, which released one self-titled, self-produced album in 1980. Lead vocalist, Dave Campton, born on October 3, 1953, passed away from a short battle from an unspecified illness on September 27, 2023, at the age of 70.
