NEWS: Scordatura unleash “Led Into Oblivion”!
It has been six long years since the last recorded confession of Scottish Death Metal purveyors Scordatura, the well received “Mass Failure” considered a work of art in the four corners of the globe. In 2024 bassist Derek Wright exited stage left, his replacement former Dominicide strings master Liam McCafferty. The band were already said to be in writing mode at that time and have now agreed a 19th June release date for “Led Into Oblivion” with Everlasting Spew Records, that news being accompanied by a music video for the title track directed by Calum McMillan and filmed at Dunmore Park House in Falkirk, Scotland. Pre-orders are available over at bandcamp.
The band comment: “We started writing the music for ‘Led Into Oblivion’ in 2021 knowing what we wanted to refine from previous releases. This is definitely the most focused record we have done to date, we spent a long time arranging the music and lyrics to ensure it is concise and to the point, with any fat stripped away.
‘Led Into Oblivion’ explores the idea of humanity slowly marching to its own doom with increasing reliance on technology & artificial intelligence. Our good friend Malcolm Abbou (Heads On Pikes) handled the recording and mixing, with the master being done by Korentin Mens and we got the incredible Paolo Girardi to paint his interpretation of our lyrics with the finished result being my favourite artwork we have ever done with the amount of depth and detail he has included in it.”
