The sixth album by the Technical Death band MASTIC SCUM, “Icon”, has been in shops since October7th. After their video clip for “Slavebreed”, the Austrians have now released another lyric video, “Create And Destroy”, in which the breathtaking artwork of the longplayer, created by GSDsign, is once again impressively set in scene.
The new Death steel roller was recorded in Vienna’s Grindlab Studio, produced, mixed and mastered in Metalforge Studio under the care of Mike Kronstorfer.
MASTIC SCUM are undoubtedly one of Austria’s best-known metal exports. Since the early 90s, the band has been ravaging the international Metal scene, delivering brute and technically high-quality Death anthems that couldn’t sound more crushing. Striking guitar riffs, merciless drums and massive grooves define the band’s sound.
Even though the last album was released a few years ago, the band has not been idle in the meantime and has released various (split) EPs and tapes and has graced the stages of Europe time and again. With “Icon”, the band now presents their sixth longplayer, which comes up with the typical band trademarks and aims exactly where it hurts: on the face!
