About Scythia: 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.
So what is Scythia?
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.
In 2010, Scythia released its debut, “…Of War” (originally with violin) which was produced by Shaun Thingvold who has engineered on projects with SYL, Fear Factory, Darkest Hour and many more. Now, following some line-up changes, Scythia will be releasing its second album “…Of Exile”, again produced by Shaun Thingvold September 23, 2011.

Out Today! Trombone Metallers FALLSTAF “BASTARD SONS OF A PURE BREED”

Fallstaf, the Montreal, QC based thrash / hardcore band whom have hired a Hitman with a trombone to execute their “Brass Metal” assassinations, are proud to announce that their full length album, “Bastard Sons Of A Pure Breed” is available today, October 25th.
“You’ve waited long enough you bunch of BASTARD sons, the album is now available so go and get it before the Hitman gets you!” commented bassist Ben Forte.
In celebration of the release the band is offering the album exclusively for the special price of $6.66 on LoudTrax.com this week, which can be found at the following link here.
The album features 11 tracks of fury; self-produced by Fallstaf, and mixed and mastered by Kevin Jardine (Slaves on Dope) of Uplift Studios and is the follow up their 2009 EP “The Hitman Plays Trombone”. Blending aggressive trombone with heavy rock, thrash and hardcore influences, Fallstaf are excited to unleash a new sound to the metal family tree, which was born out of their other more soften music collective North East Bistro.

Kill Matilda Post Update On The Zombie Apocalypse Tour
Vancouver’s zombie hunting punk rockers Kill Matilda have posted their most recent tour journal from their cross Canada “Zombie Apocalypse” tour in promotion of their recently released debut full-length, “I Want Revenge”, out as of October 11th.
The read the journal update please visit the following link on PureGrainAudio.com. – http://puregrainaudio.com/features/kill-matilda-exclusive-zombie-apocalypse-tour-2011-tour-journal-2-with-guitarist-and-vocalist-dusty-exner
Excerpt from posting:
“We made it to the eastern tip of Canada and back to southern Ontario with few problems other than the occasional horde of raving zombies that needed to be slaughtered. Little did we know that the near vehicular miss we had suffered in Montreal (see Facebook page for pictures of the car that drove up the side of our car and flipped itself but only damaged our car in a very minor way) was actually a hit; the rear axle of our touring vehicle had been cracked in the accident but didn’t break all the way until we were driving down the street in Toronto.”
