There is a new shouter in Mastic Scum, we welcome "Maggo" in the band! We know us since years in a good frienship and are happy to work together now, he is the perfect match for Mastic Scum! "Maggo" is also active in Inzest (Deathcore), Tristwood (Industrial Metal) and Watch Me Bleed (Trash/Hardcore).

Mastic Scum had to part ways with shouter "Will" due musical differences. Harry comments: "It was a hard decision for us but the best for the band. We thought about this fact a long period of time and this change was the only right step for Mastic Scum." We wish him all the best for the future.

Check out the new demo-track "Regression" from the pre-production of our upcoming album! Mastic Scum will enter studio in march 2009 to record 12 tracks for the forthcoming CD. Some songtitles: Construcdead, Dead Remains, Regression, The Consciousness In A State Of Mind, The Sufferage, Extinction... Stay tuned!

We already finished the pre-production of our upcoming album! The new material is fucking exciting and heavy as fuck: shredding mosh grooves and grinding blast attacks. “We continued to refine the songs over and over again, never before we have spent so much time in songwriting and never before we have put so much energy in our new material…“

We will enter studio in February and are looking forward to finish the work on the album in spring. Some songtitles: Construcdead, The Sufferage, Dead Remains, The Consciousness In A State Of Mind, Extinction... The new album will contain 12 tracks and is planned to be released 2009. Stay tuned!
