SCORPION CHILD Set To Release New Full-Length Album, I Saw The End As It Passed Right Through Me By Larry Petro, News Monkey Monday, December 2, 2024 @ 11:39 AM
Austin, Texas band, SCORPION CHILD, plays dark rock and roll that blends haunting themes and atmospheric melodies; a unique fusion of post-punk, hard rock, and brooding aesthetic. The band has returned in 2024, galvanized with a fortified lineup and renewed dedication. SCORPION CHILD will release its new album, I Saw the End as it Passed Right Through Me, on February 14, 2025 via Noize in the Attic Records. The LP is the follow up to the band's 2016 full-length LP, Acid Roulette (Nuclear Blast Records), a release hailed as "mesmerizing" by Metal Hammer.
The first taste of what I Saw the End as it Passed Right Through Me delivers lies in wait with the new single, "Outliers", a powerful punch of a song, filled with introspective lyrics, that perfectly encapsulates the band's distinct style. "Outliers" was recorded at Austin's Point West Recording with Charles Godfrey (Black Angels, The Mountain Goats). Stream SCORPION CHILD's "Outliers" video now on KNAC.COM HERE.
"Outliers" deep dives into the organizational use of fear tactics and the related, unknown forces that we are supposed to run from, or conform to," offers SCORPION CHILD vocalist Aryn Jonathan Black. "The song is a look into the thought that "they" are always watching us and that we should play the same game from our POV in the shadows."
"I Saw the End as it Passed Right Through Me is a quite intense and rather moody record," Black continues. "I wrote these songs from the pits of a deep depression after going through a really rough patch in life where my mental health was very poor. Don't think of it as all gloomy, though, because in our sadness there are always euphoric times of extreme happiness and nirvana. It's truly an honest record, and we are excited to perform it live."
