biography
Scarred is a Death Metal Band from Luxembourg formed in 2003.
Initially they started out as a Thrash Metal Project which released
an E.P. called “Inner Scars” in 2004. However, through the years and
after various line-up changes, they evolved towards a heavier and
more brutal sound.
In 2009 their first full-length album “New Filth Order” was released.
Since then, Scarred has performed alongside many great artists and
on major stages such as Wacken Open Air and Metalcamp. Due to
many different influences, Scarred’s precise genre is hard to define
and should be discovered.
On May 10 2013, Scarred has released their new album entitled
“Gaia/Medea” under the banner of Klonosphere / Season
of Mist Distribution. This Opus was mixed and mastered by
Jochem Jacobs (Textures) at Split Second Sound Studio and features
a guest solo by Attila Vörös (Nevermore, Leander Rising).

Reviews
A band with great songwriting quality to whom we can predict a great future...
METALLIAN (F)
These harmonies, how incredible full and grooving the drumparts are, and how delicious the almost
chaotic reared atmospheric songs are. This is what metal needs: fanatic, special and excellent new
blood.
Aardshok (NL)
Scarred can pretend to have written an exciting album and that’s the truth
LEGACY (GER)
It’s organic and the ensemble lives! Impressive maturity!
Obsküre Mag (F)
The chunky grooves and technically-charged riffs are colossal
The Midlands Rocks (UK)
Powerful, technical, inventive, groovy, ambient and well written
PavilLion 666 (F)
They have perfect depth and inspiration
Alternative Magazine (F)
An authentic, solid and exciting album that has deserved to be bought, heard and loved!
Twilight magazine (Ger)
Gaia/Medea banks on the listener being able to hang with its dynamic ability to cull from the death
metal/modern metal potpourri. If one can do that, then consider Scarred your next viable option in
the European Metal derby
Dead Rhetoric (USA)
Gaia/Medea is a riff fest from start to finish. If you hunger for tasty riffs this album is a must!
Metal-Temple (UK)
One can only be impressed by the intelligent songwriting
La Grosse Radio Metal (F)
A fresh, new and genre splicing monolith that will rock your medium for deploying tunes in to your
skull. I like to think that if Dimebag had still been alive, he would have been a fan of Scarred.
Rock n’ Reel Reviews (UK)
You have the impression that they are world beaters
Metal Rules (USA)
With this ferocity Scarred impose themselves as a bulldozer reference in death metal
Nawak Posse (F)
Gaia/Medea has a strong personality and the quality production will make the listening experience
more intense and unique as the listener will stumble upon explicit surprises and experiences
heavy sound webzine (F)
Scarred pushes with a lot of groove and powerful Death Metal
Skrikzine (NO)
This is a band that seems to take their music very seriously and isn’t caught up with concerns of what
people will think. I believe Thor would have this album in his collection when he sets off to do battle.
rise above the anchor (USA)
I don’t know where i could find a weak spot on this album. Listen to it! Buy it!
i am havoc (ger)
Each song develops different kinds of musical landscapes and one has to say : “linearity mustn’t be”
metalfrance (F)
The work delivered by this band must be noted and pointed out!
VS-webzine (F)
With Gaia/Medea, Scarred puts Luxembourgish Metal on the map!
whiteroom reviews (NL)
Guts, grey matter and no bullshit. bravo Scarred.
sons of metal (F)
One hour of dense and powerful music like no one else dares to record in these “shuffle” days
metal land (F)
Scarred has written songs that have many influences but the compositions are so well-crafted
sea of tranquility (USA)
To keep things short I’ll just say: if you don’t have this masterpiece on your shelf when it comes
out…you’re missing out big time!
El Gore (lux)
I will say one thing : off with the hat and bang your head!
XXL rock (Ger)
Conquered and riff-ed by so much talent!
music waves (F)
This is the formula : 1/6 groove + 1/6 thrash + 1/6 Morbid Angel + 1/6 hardcore + 1/6 death + 1/6
atmosphere
heavy law (F)
This will without a doubt open doors for them
