SIGNS OF THE SWARM Release New Video For "Scars Upon Scars" By Larry Petro, News Monkey Saturday, June 28, 2025 @ 7:26 AM
Currently on tour across Europe, Pittsburgh deathcore titans SIGNS OF THE SWARM have released a new single/video today, titled "Scars Upon Scars" -- taken from the band's upcoming sixth full-length, To Rid Myself of Truth, which is due to be released August 22nd via Century Media Records. Watch the video on KNAC.COM HERE.
""Scars Upon Scars" is about my struggles with addiction," reveals vocalist David Simonich. "I tried to make it accessible for anyone who is dealing with addiction: showcasing the depriving lows of withdrawal and highlighting the hunger that is never satiated. I hope someone can take this piece I've given of myself and feel less alone.
With such direct lyrics, I approached my vocals with influences from hardcore bands I like, such as JESUS PIECE, BACKTRACK and DESOLATED."

Reunited with producer Josh Schroeder (Lorna Shore, Mental Cruelty, Varials, King 810), SIGNS OF THE SWARM continues molting their slamming deathcore exoskeleton, revealing a band now as indebted to MESHUGGAH, GOJIRA and FEAR FACTORY as any of the deathcore bands they grew up on-now peers. After writing breakout 5th LP Amongst the Low & Empty (2023) almost entirely in-studio, the group geared up to do it again on To Rid Myself of Truth. This stint's 7-week lead time-PLUS the in-studio time-was a veritable vacation for the band, with the addition of guitarist/backing vocalist Carl Schulz adding a whole other set of riffing hands (and vocal chords) to the band. It was plenty of time for the now-quartet, rounded out by bassist Michael Cassese, to craft metal exactly as they think it should sound: MORE. PISSED. And it is. Musically the album's edges are far more serrated than their last's flirtations with djenty bounce.
