The third track off the album, "From the Zodiacal Light", was released for streaming on June 18, 2014.[3] In support of the record, the band embarked on a world tour in 2014.[1][2]

Upon its release, Primitive and Deadly received a positive reception from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from critics, the album received an average score of 80, which indicates "Generally favorable reviews", based on 18 reviews.[5] Thom Jurek of AllMusic stated: "Earth's massive, plodding, serpentine approach on Primitive and Deadly reflects a new focus on lyric euphony and a renewed commitment to corporeal force." Jurek also further added: "The pervasive, blinding darkness that saturates this bleak, sublime music is driven by the band's collective desire to seek ecstasy in the very heart of the void."[6] Drowned in Sound critic Tristan Bath described the album as "the latest in a recent suite of triumphs—by this point Earth are masters of their game, making music that’s bigger and more powerful than anything mere mortals should be able to create."[7] musicOMH critic Sam Shephard wrote: "Primitive and Deadly, in part, represents an encapsulation of Earth’s discography, but more importantly it also sees the band moving on, entering a new phase and expanding their dimensions."[8] Grayson Currin of Pitchfork declared: "Earth have seemed overdue for a change, and these songs collectively represent a promising half-step toward it."[9]
