A few questions - interview with thrash death metal band from France - SCORN.
Answered vocalist Manu Iriarté, thank you!
Ave, can you introduce your band to our readers? – When was it founded and what style of music do you play etc.?
Hi everyone! We're the death thrash metal band called Scorn. We deliver some uncompromising thrash metal with heavy loads of death metal riffs and some growling voices. The band was formed in fall 2020 , but we're on the final line up since the begining of 2021. I'm Manu the singer , Tony hits the drums , Guillaume is the guitar shredmaster and Rob is our bassist , the source of all our loudness! We're ready for some action , agressivity is our leadership!
Where and under what conditions were you recording the new album? Who was in charge of sound, production and mastering?
We quickly gathered all together in order to build up ten songs. We all worked a lot and we were able to start the records on may 2021. We managed everything ourselves , a long time friend of mine build up with the mix / master part. Eric from Notos Studio did a master work for sure. Thanks bro!
How many copies were released and which medium was used for this new edition (CD, digital, vinyl, cassette)?
The first release is a worlwide release of 500 CD copies with the death metal label Great Dane Records. The label also released the album on all streaming medias. So , you can say we're everywhere you will be looking for us.
Who is the author of the lyrics and how were they created and about what do the lyrics deal with?
I'm in charge with the lyrics part. I've always been fascinated with the human kind and the way there twisted mind works. I used this on the songs to get in lot of different people who all have some really serious "scorn" problems ( with themselves , overs , killing lust and so many more). Our world is dark and violent , no place for hope and compromise. Just hate and anger.
Who created the logo of the band, and who took care of the graphics and the website? What about you and social networks? Do you consider these things important?
Dekan Art realised the art of the band , Mosa Eye worked on the cover and Remedy Art design worked on all the booklet and graphic section. About the social networks , of course they're important but i think that's nothing comparated to live gigs. Please , keep this spirit alive! We'll be very to come and crush your face in live!
Which label did you choose for releasing your album and why this label? Are you satisfied by how your label represents you and takés care about you?
We choosed this label because it's a really good and renowned label. Raph , the boss , is also an old time friend , i've working with him for approximatively 10 years , he's a beast , and a very cool guy leaded by this love of metal music.
Which bands do you idolise and where do you get your inspiration?
We idolise all bands that spread aggressivity. For my part , i'm a huge fan of Misery Index , Testament , Dying Fetus and Machine Gun Kelly. I let you find the intruder ahahaha.
Did you send your record to some Labels - which are the labels? How was the response?
We only send our record to one other label. The name isn't important (that was Listenable Records). The covid part has really put some heavy breaks i think between bands and label , it's really cool that Great Dane Records trusted in our power and made us a part of them.
How many gigs have you played? Which type of gigs do you prefer, whether it's (clubs or festivals) and which of your performances would you consider as the best?
For now , let's say approximatively ten , we have a tour coming this summer in Spain. For my part , i like to play on big stages in festival because of the crowd for sure , and the space to move. I also like very small places where you can grab people by the neck and yell at their face with psycho eyes. The better place to be is the place where you play bro.
What about your plans for the future? What do you want to achieve with the band?
We will start working on a new album this summer and we will look forward for places to play and people to annihilate! I did everything i could have dreamed about personaly with music , but i still want to know how far i can get with all my band mates! Be sure that it's only the begining.
