WEEK 124 – SCYTHIAN FATE

My HeadBangers, welcome from Sydney/Melbourne, Australia:

SCYTHIAN FATE

“Nocturnal Disciples”

I know this one is a couple years old, but I love it.  It is one of the best videos I’ve seen that reminds me of a really scary vampire and evil dark creature movie, right up my alley guys.

The guys sent me their bio, so here we go:

Australian metal outfit Scythian Fate was founded as a metal studio project by guitarists Nino Morano and Tom Kotsonis in Sydney, around 2012. Four years later, with the help of session musicians they released a 5 track EP entitled “Drakaena Scythia”.

These uncompromising metalheads have forged an original sound, balancing aggression with dark melodic passages and an intense hard hitting drum attack, to concoct their signature sound.

Scythian Fate’s influences are anchored in the Teutonic and Bay Area thrash bands, along with influences from early NWOBHM and technical prog metal .

Following on from their Single “Echoes Of The Pharisee” released in 2019, the lads dropped their epic album “Matrimony in Madness” which steered them into a heavier darker direction.

In 2020, they bolstered their arsenal with bass player Brad Watts who is now a permanent feature of Scythian Fate. The lads are currently working on a new release which they endeavour to release over the next 12 months.

I know there is a story behind their name.  I’ve been doing some snooping around and the Scythians have a long history, you know I love a band with history.  But I’ll leave this for another time.  Now another song….

“Lady Macbeth”

I really love this band.  Talk about something different, unusual, dark, and calling to you.  

Let’s meet the band:

Brad Watts -Bass Guitar

Tom Kotsonis – Rhythm Guitar

Nino Morano – Rhythm/Lead Guitars/Drums

Well my HeadBangers, I’m definitely going to be back with updates on these guys.  Also, I want to know more about the history behind the name.

Check them out on their social media sites, and sit back and listen to the music.  What is saying to you???

That’s it for this chapter, but like I said I will be back with this band.  In the meantime, don’t stand to close to the fire if you can’t handle the burn…..
