Introducing the scariest thing to come out of Nottingham since Torvill and
Dean...
Rising from the ashes of what was undoubtedly the greatest "Blue Peter Metal" band of their
time - Thor's Children, Evil Scarecrow have gone on to leave audiences awed by their Iron
Maiden meets Black Metal meets stickyback plastic performances.
With influences from artists such as Megadeth, Marilyn Manson, Europe and of course
Immortal's make up application techniques, you can never be too sure what will be served up
next, but that's just part of the experience.
Since the release of their debut album “Crowcifiction” and then its follow up the “Hell
Dog” EP the band have received praise from music critics and fans alike. They have gigged
extensively in the UK winning the hearts of Metal fans wherever they are heard.
“…“Morbid Witch” in particular is a bloody infectious number, which has had me cackling
“Morbid Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitch” under my breath like some Special Brew soaked vagrant for
days.”

Nothing can really prepare you for the live Evil Scarecrow experience. They have played to
captivated and robot dancing audiences at venues as famous as the Main Hall at Nottingham
Rock City, and ably supported acts as well known as Amen, Cradle of Filth and the infamous
GWAR!
“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
2008 was the best year to date for the band, the peak of which was winning the
Bloodstock Open Air unsigned band competition and opening the Main Stage of the Festival on
the Saturday. The response the band received from both the media and the Metal fans at the
festival has been overwhelmingly positive.
“... 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
2009 promises to be even better with the band poised to release their second full length
album “Sixty-Six Minutes Past Six” in the spring. The year has already started on a bright
note with the band appearing in the readers poll of Terrorizer magazine as one of the top
ten best unsigned bands.
It is Evil Scarecrow’s impressive song writing and ingenious lyrics that are the key to
their success, blending together humour with their love for all things Heavy Metal… though
of course a bit of co-ordinated dancing never hurt anyone! It is this passion and enthusiasm
that never fails to connect with their audience.
Are you ready for the Evil Scarecrow live onslaught? When they’re invading a stage near you,
it's not to be missed!
