Fusing progressive and symphonic sensibilities to their already eclectic blackened death style, Melbourne based act ESCARION release the first single, and title track ‘Towards A Futile Existence’ from their upcoming sophomore effort due for release on October 31st.

Marked by guitarist Louis Parengkuan’s thrash-laden style as well as atmospheric vocals and textured keyboards from newest member Gaia, the eight track album muddies the waters of genre for ESCARION even further with the introduction of clean vocals and layered ambience. Lyrically, the album continues to explore the band’s favoured theme of the human psyche and modern society’s disconnect from reality under a digitised influence.
The band comments: ‘Our sophomore album, ‘Towards A Futile Existence’ is a spiritual journey, just like our debut. Whereas the first was following the concept of the seven deadly sins and examining their impact on the human psyche, this album has a focus on modernity and the impacts it has on the soul. It is both a warning of our current trajectory, as well as a reflection on the pain and struggle of life in a world where nihilism is prevailing. We are truly walking ‘with despair in our hearts, Towards a Futile Existence’, in our personal life, as well as society as a whole.’
Ever relentless and expansive in crafting their works, ESCARION follows in the innovative vein of bands such as Death, Behemoth, Opeth and Trivium to form a sound that is altogether brutal, experimental and confronting.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
