pragmatic (adj.)
The opposite of idealistic is pragmatic, a word that describes a philosophy of "doing what works best."
From Greek pragma "deed," the word has historically described philosophers and politicians who were
concerned more with real-world application of ideas than with abstract notions. A pragmatic person
is sensible, grounded, and practical.

Some stuff that comes to mind for "primal and gritty" on the classical side of things...

King Kaschei's Infernal Dance from Stravinsky's Firebird


Augurs of Springs from Stravinsky's Rite of Spring


The Evil God and the Dance of the Pagan Monsters from Prokofiev's Scythian Suite


The Dies Irae from Verdi's Requiem


O Fortuna from Orff's Carmina Burana


The Hut on Fowl's Legs from Mussorsgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition


Night on Bald Mountain from Mussorgsky

On a different note, I'm sure the Swede is already familiar, but just in case...

Opeth - Demon of the Fall.

Not english, but cool.

Opeth - Demon of the Fall.
Opeth - Ghost Reveries (album) and specifically "The Baying of the Hounds" comes to mind.
