10 Up & Coming Metal Bands You Need To Hear
2. Evil Scarecrow
Despite the look, aggression and velocity of metal music, it can sometimes embrace a more comical side thanks to bands like Evil Scarecrow. Often compared to Lawnmower Deth thanks to their elaborate, extravagant and comedic stage presence, Evil Scarecrow are the undisputed superstars of British DIY metal.
Having written, recorded and self-released all of their material as well as designing their own looks and on-stage persona, Evil Scarecrow prove just how far perseverance can get you. At present, Evil Scarecrow have four full length studio albums to their name, with the latest of which being 2018's 'Chapter IV: Antartarctica'.
Some of bands most notable songs include 'Robototron', a tale of an army of robots conquering the world. The heavy riffs, shredding guitar play and matching dance routine all make this song a fan favourite at live shows. Other Evil Scarecrow songs include excellently titled pieces of art such as 'Cosmos Goth Moth Gong', 'Crabulon' and 'Thank God for Jesus'.
