Scythia Announce Summer Siege Tour Dates
The pillaging folk metallers of Vancouver’s Scythia have announced they will be trekking across western Canada for their Summer Siege Tour in promotion of their upcoming 2011 release “…Of Exile”.
Having been in studio for the last few months putting the finishing touches on the sophmore release, the follow up to their 2010 debut release “…Of War” (originally with violin). The Canadian folk metal contingent, following some line-up changes, is looking forward to unleashing its second album “…Of Exile” (with the Oboe of Death), again produced by Shaun Thingvold who has engineered on projects with SYL, Fear Factory, Darkest Hour and many more.
Scythia captain Dave Khan commented on the tour and the upcoming album.
“We are really excited about touring this summer to visit some of our favourite places to play in Western Canada and be a part of the Metal Mountain Fest. This tour is an opportunity for our fans in smaller towns to get an advance preview of our upcoming record.”
About: Formed in the latter half of 2008, Scythia is a five piece band that combines haunting folk melodies (emphasized by keyboards and oboe) with the driving force of modern progressive metal to form a raw and powerful sound that is their own. Scythia is not your older brother’s metal band. Unless that band had an oboe of death, echoes of thunder, and a knack for writing folk metal tunes.
Taking its name from vocalist/guitarist Dave Khan’s infatuation with a painting of Nordic/Russian warriors riding bears while brandishing swords, Scythia not only “gives the painting musical significance,” but it is also “the name of an ancient empire spanning from the Caucasus through Russia, and even into eastern Scandinavia. The melodies used in our music have a very ancient, sometimes medieval sound, so I wanted to attribute them to an ancient civilization,” says Khan.

AUROCH Announce Canadian Tour Dates + Free Download
Vancouver death metallers Auroch has announced they will be kicking of their Western Canadian Tour on August 11th till August 28th along with a scheduled performance at the third annual SFM Fest in Toronto on September 3, 2011 alongside Mexican metallers Morbosidad.
“We are very excited to get back on the road, play these killer festivals and showcase our material from the upcoming record to our Canadian fans. Hope to see some old faces, new fans and of course plenty of banging heads and horns held high. We’ve got some surprises in store.” commented Auroch vocalist Cuillen Sander
In addition, Auroch is giving fans a free download of their latest track “Astral King” at the following link – http://auroch1.bandcamp.com/track/astral-king
About: Ceremonially conjured a few years back from Vancouvers underground, Auroch blends elements of brutal death metal, blasting black metal and grindcore with progressive elements of melodic thrash metal to create a unique occult sound. Rounded out with a huge variety of vocals, ranging from depraved low pitched, berzerk speed growls and chaotic shrieking to soaring clean vocaled melodies and classic falsettos, it is truely a range never before heard. Through raging brutality and contemplative progressions, Auroch seeks to evoke the seal of the old one!
