Critically
acclaimed doom/death/sludge band Warcrab return with
their new album “Scars of Aeons”. The album is a
five track masterpiece that will be released on digital formats on October 15th
via Black Bow Records.
Warcrab
have been making a name for themselves in the UK underground Metal scene since
2011. Hailing from the South West of England, the six piece have played the
length and breadth of the country wowing audiences with their carefully crafted
blend of Death, Sludge and Doom Metal.
The
first release, a Self-titled EP, came in late 2012 and was very well received.
Showcasing the bands heavy, sledgehammer approach to songwriting Warcrab followed this release with a number of successful
UK shows throughout 2013. The band began 2014 with a string of dates
across the UK with London-based doomsters Diesel King, this
provided great exposure for some of their crushing and dynamic new material
from their eagerly awaited second EP “Ashes of Carnage”. This was
premiered and the EP released when the band played to a huge audience on the
New Blood stage at Bloodstock 2014 which
was swiftly followed by a UK tour with Brazilian death mongers Krow. This second offering was a step up for the band as
they strived to hone their sound and enhance what they had previously written.
With a strong theme of warfare, conflict and the agonies that ensue they aimed
to portray this both lyrically and musically in songs such as “In this Iron Tomb”, "Lay all to Waste” and “Entombed in Flames”.
In late 2015 the band entered Skyhammer Studios, with Chris Fielding (Conan) at the desk to embark on
recording the third release “Scars of Aeons”. 2016 looks to be
very promising for Warcrab with the
release of this monster through Black Bow Records' and
further live offerings at upcoming UK metal festivals such as Thashersaurus and Incineration fest. This
will no doubt be an opportunity for them to pummel their audience into ear
bleeding submission and today we can exclusively reveal a brand new track entitled “Conquest” which you can check out below
