Primal Fear is a German power metal band formed in 1997 by Ralf Scheepers (vocals, ex‑Gamma Ray) and Mat Sinner (bass and vocals, Sinner). Sinner and Scheepers founded the band after Scheepers was not hired as Rob Halford’s replacement in Judas Priest. Primal Fear was founded in October 1997 by singer Ralf Scheepers and Mat Sinner. Both musicians had long been active in the heavy metal scene before forming the band. Ralf Scheepers had previously sung in Tyran Pace, F.B.I. and the internationally successful Gamma Ray. After a gig with his Judas Priest cover band Just Priest — in which Mat Sinner and Tom Naumann participated — the idea arose to form Primal Fear. They signed a record deal with Nuclear Blast Records in late 1997. Their debut album Primal Fear was released in February 1998 and entered the German LP charts at number 48, making it one of the highest chart entries for a debut album in German metal. That same year, they toured with metal veterans Running Wild and HammerFall.
