Scythian News

Hailz,

Scythian signed a 3 album deal last week to the UK Label Galactic Records!

http://www.galacticrecords.co.uk

Also, we got our v.first review:

"This is easily the best demo I've received to date for review. London's Scythian rolls out thrashy death metal with Swedish grit and touches of black metal atmosphere. The six songs on Suffering to the Conquered burst with nasty, memorable riffs and lots of little runs and switch-ups. The solos have an awesomely old-school, thin and distant vibe. There's even a vicious cover of Bathory's "Holocaust" that gives the original a run for its money. The production is natural and balanced, the performances are ripping, and the minimal artwork looks sharp. Judging from the layout of its MySpace (from which this demo is available for purchase) and overall presentation, this band knows exactly what it's going for and how to get there. If I had a label, I'd sign these guys in a heartbeat. This is some of the best death metal I've heard in years. Labels, get on it!"

Cheers, man

Hmm, its a bit hard to pidegonhole the sound I think. There really is barely any Death Metal influences in the music....except of maybe my vocals at times.
Main influences is stuff like Bathory and Sodom.

Yeah, that's just me being ignorant of the differences between the extreme metal genres. It's generally the stuff that's too extreme that I don't like too much, but this is great, it has a nice balance of extreme madness to make me think 'good lord' and melodic guitar goodness to make me think 'lovely stuff'. But because of that, I think you're right, it is hard to pidgeonhole (spelling madness?) the sound, which is a good thing in my opinion!

Not bad at all!! The vocals are good I like them but the production is very black metal and all them scandanavian black metal albums annoyed me as a result, so this does abit. Good tho, miles better than Evile.
