An update of rock activity from your faithful cinematic punkers, The Scaramanga Six. We sincerely hope you are ‘digging’ the GLUT album we released a couple of months back – and as you may know, there is more to come!
We announced back then that the plan was to release the second album ‘DEARTH’ in quick succession, however we’ve changed the schedule slightly – We felt that the ‘shape’ of DEARTH wasn’t quite right so have taken the decision to remove a few of the tracks and instead write and record another set in their place to improve the overall flow and feel of the record. This is the great thing about being truly independent and DIY – we can fiddle around with things to perfect our art, to get things exactly how we want. This amendment should only prove to cause a mild delay to the album’s release and therefore the improved DEARTH will now be scheduled to assault your very eardrums in October this year. Watch this space for more news…
In the meantime, we have an interim EP release based around the balls-out rocker ‘BAD TIME MUSIC’ from the GLUT album which will be available from Bandcamp and all the usual digital outlets on Monday 9th June. As well as the rocking title track themed around the making the mistake of telling business associates at a networking event that you ‘play in a band’, the rest of the EP will feature a trio of brand new, as-yet unreleased tracks yoinked from the original DEARTH running-order – no sub-standards going on here, just that we felt these ones just weren’t fitting. They were ‘Just Like Nothing on Dearth’.
These tunes will be ‘Thems the LAWs’ (a rock & rolling romp about the nefarious investment portfolios of music streaming platform CEOs), ‘Salted Caramel’ (an 80s prog belter about the ignorance epidemic in the USA) and ‘Russian Dolls’ (an epic and atmospheric builder-upper concerning a tale of a man’s cadaverous and macabre collection of ‘playthings’).
Links to Bandcamp et al to follow on release day + also watch this space for an exclusive featuring the ridiculous new promo video for ‘Bad Time Music’ to titillate both ears and eyes.
Stay GLUTenous!
