EVIL SCARECROW

Playing: Sunday, 11th August 2013

Stage: Sophie Lancaster Stage

Band Photo Gallery

Evil Scarecrow are the finest parody metal band from Nottingham to have written a song about a robot… probably.

Many years ago in
a desolate Lincolnshire town a band of dubiously termed musicians of Nordic
heraldry with a fondness for sticky back plastic decided to go their separate
ways, but as a phoenix rises from the ashes a new and perhaps even more
glorious band emerged from the dying embers of Thor’s Children (widely regarded
as the greatest Blue Peter Metal band of all time) and thus Evil Scarecrow
triumphantly exploded in to existence.

In the following
years the slowly band relocated to Nottingham evolving through several line up
changes to become the monstrous and stunning apparition that you see today. The
current incarnation of the band is version 5.0 featuring Dr. Rabid Hell,
Brother Dimitri Pain, Kraven Morrdeth, Princess Luxury and Ringmaster Monty Blitzfist.
Previous band members may have been left behind but they’re not forgotten, the
influence of Hymen the Unbreakable, Nemesis, Frenzy G. Spinesnap and Papa Bongo
have all helped to create the unique sound and style of Evil Scarecrow.

The band have two
full albums “Crowcifiction” and “Sixty Six Minutes Past Six” with the “Hell
Dog” EP being released between the two. Two official videos have been released,
the ever popular “Robototron” and fan favourite “Blacken the Everything”.

Currently they are
hard at work on the as yet untitled third album which will be the first
recorded with the current line up. As ever the album will include influences
from across the metal genre melded together with the inimitable Evil Scarecrow
humour and just a smattering of some rather more imitable dance moves.

It is in the live
arena that the band have really proved their worth, they have gigged
relentlessly around the UK for a number of years captivating and sometimes
rather surprising audiences from venues as small as the local pub, as legendary
as Nottingham Rock City and as mammoth as the main stage at Bloodstock
Festival. Everywhere they play they win new fans, their passion and enthusiasm
ensures they always connect with their audience who in turn spread the word far
and wide.

The support of
fans saw Evil Scarecrow win the Bloodstock Unsigned Competition in 2008 and
they were featured in Terrorizer’s best unsigned band readers’ poll at the end
of the same year. Since then the band have leaped from strength to strength
expanding their following and catching the eye of the critics. In 2011 they
made a triumphant return to Bloodstock playing a set to a packed to bursting
second stage tent and a quite astounding number of robot dancers.

Demand for the
live show has never been stronger and the band show no signs of slowing down
their gigging schedule. Amongst some of the higher profile shows they played in
2012 were Hammerfest Festival, the Hard Rock Hell Ibiza Road Trip and as part
of the pre-party for the prestigious Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards. Are you ready for the Evil Scarecrow live
onslaught? When they’re invading a stage near you, it's not to be missed!

"If you
havent seen Evil Scarecrow (9) yet then it feels unfair to ruin the surprise.
An affable blend of Pythonesque absurdity, artfully drawn from an evident love
of metal, they have the crowd in the palm of their collective claw from
Sixty-Six minutes past Six."

Metal Hammer

“Praise be, then, for Evil Scarecrow…Novelty
bands don't last long on stage, everyone's tired of the joke by the third song
in. Evil Scarecrow break the mould by being damned competent musicians as well
as piss funny.”

The Rock City
Review

“... those who
camped surely felt the repercussions, as did the festival itself as tooled-up
monster magnets Evil Scarecrow found themselves taking to the stage a little
later than scheduled. That didn’t stop the enthusiastic crowd giving their
melody-laced extreme metal their full attention, and their performance was
surprisingly engaging.”

Powerplay Magazine

“This quintet
command the big stage surprisingly well, suppressing all the apprehensions I
had ... Despite my usual hangover, I walked away from their set with an amused
grin.”

Metal Team UK

“It’s well
thought-out and delivered metal ... and frighteningly hilarious crowd
interaction – creating a chaotic mix that sees Evil Scarecrow win many hearts
and become perfect main stage openers.”

Planet Loud

“Evil Scarecrow is
the only unsigned band appearing on the main stage and they certainly earn the
crowd’s respect by putting on a very decent show. Fans have clearly turned up
and know all the moves and lyrics by heart.”

Subba Cultcha

“Festivals are all
about being blown away by bands you know almost nothing about and for me at HRH
Evil Scarecrow managed just that. Another unforgettable set and a band I
definitely have to see again.”

Cack Blabbath

“They perform
their soul ripping metal tracks with such passion it’s hard not to stand up and
take notice. That and their set is also one of the most wildly aggressive and
downright entertaining sets of the entire festival so far.”
