Greetings everyone! Miyamiya from the Promo team here today.
This month, FFXIV’s official band will be releasing their latest album, THE PRIMALS – Dark Decades! Be sure to pre-order if you haven’t already!
Here’s the list of rock-style arrangements featured in this album:
1. Ride the Rhythm
2. Back to the Drawing Board
3. Not Afraid
4. Unleashed
5. Bee My Honey (Masayoshi Soken & GUNN Vocals)
6. Give It All
The tracklist is packed with raiding tunes! The first five tracks are brand-new arrangements that haven’t been released elsewhere.
Personally, I’d recommend the new rendition of “Bee My Honey”, which features a rather… interesting twist. Listen to a sample!
We also have a message for our fans from the vocalist of “Unleashed,” Jason Charles Miller, whom you may recognize from iconic tracks like “Shadowbringers,” “Close in the Distance,” and “To the Edge”!

What’s your favorite part about THE PRIMALS arrangement of “Unleashed”?
Jason
Right away, the bass and guitars in THE PRIMALS version are immediately noticeable, and in the BEST way! In every section they gradually get heavier and heavier, and then when we get to the chorus…WOW! It hits you over the head like a ton of bricks! Total ROCK DOMINATION! Then the breakdown in the 2nd chorus is really special, because it makes it that much more dynamic when the band kicks back in. I can’t wait to sing this one live!
Could you give a shout-out to our challengers in the Arcadion who’ve been eager for this album?
Jason
Thanks for all your kind words of support online. I’m so glad to be a part of this wonderful community! I hope you enjoy both versions of the song: when fighting Howling Blade, and then when jamming the song WAY TOO LOUD at home or in your car!

Thanks, Jason!
The arranged version of “Unleashed” is included in THE PRIMALS – Dark Decades, which you still have time to pre-order! I hope these energetic tunes will help our Warriors of Light overcome the summer heat!
