Scar Of The Sun announce new album ‘Inertia’

SCAR OF THE SUN have announced a new album!

Titled Inertia, the upcoming album from the Greek modern metal five piece is their third full-length offering and is scheduled to be released in May this year, via Napalm Records.

The upcoming album was recorded and mixed by singer and song-writing mastermind Terry Nikas at Zero Gravity Studios in Athens, Greece and mastered by the legendary Jens Bogren [OPETH, KATATONIA, DIMMU BORGIR] at Fascination Street Studios in Sweden.

Speaking about the upcoming new album, vocalist Terry Nikas says, “third strike, this album is our punch to the world disarray! The most aggressive album we’ve done so far indicates our current intentions! The main concept of Inertia deals with how financial interests act against the lives of everyday normal people, no matter where you come from, since profit knows no ethics and nationalities. We become lab rats and we struggle in our everyday life while at the same time that extreme minority that runs the financial interests see people like numbers and value our lives like ants. These are matters that concern and annoy me and I had to get them out of my chest.”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for the first song lifted from the upcoming album; I Am The Circle. Speaking about the new song, Niklas adds, “new, heavier and groovier SCAR OF THE SUN, but always catchy! Years of fighting compressed our anger in a few minutes shape!”

Speaking about the video, the band adds, “I Am The Circle is the first video from our upcoming album Inertia. It acts as a dynamic and direct introduction to our sound and band presence. The video was directed by Achilleas Gatsopoulos who has been responsible for the overall visual aesthetic of the band since the beginning. The look is a solid combination of raw performance and our distinct graphic design approach. We will explore the world of Inertia even deeper with the release of the next videos in the following months, leading to the release of the album in May.”
