Scribe recording new album titled ‘Hail Mogambo’

Hardcore Heavyweights Scribe are currently in the studio to record the follow up to their 2010 critically acclaimed album – ‘Mark of Teja’.

The band is currently camped at the home studio of producer Kuber Sharma whose previous releases have been with the likes of Exhumation (Consider This) and Pangea (Snails are When I was Young).

As you might remember, their previous effort, ‘Mark of Teja’, sent quite a shockwave around the country and even beyond. Their fresh, new sound not only got them a spot at the prestigious Inferno Metal Festival in Oslo, Norway, but also helped them win the Best Metal Album, Best Band, Best Song, Best Bassist, as well as Best Vocalist at the first ever Rolling Stone Metal Awards and the JD Rock Awards. Scribe was also nominated at the MTV (EMA) Europe Music Awards 2011 at Belfast in the “Worldwide” category recently.

“We hope this album can take us out into space. We’d love to see space”, hopes guitarist Akshay Rajpurohit.

In keeping with their crazy side, the upcoming release is titled ‘Hail Mogambo’. The CD will contain a dozen songs and promises to continue the saga that ‘Mark of Teja’ started. The band is looking forward to releasing the album in the latter half of 2012.

They will also be performing at IIT Madras’ Saarang 2012 on the 21st of January 2012, and will open for Vildhjarta.

Scribe fans… Headbangers India recommends you watch this space. We’ve got something in store for you!

Scribe releases video for “Dum hai to aage aah!”

Scribe-vidAfter their first hit- the love song to Pav Bhaji, the guys from Mumbai based Scribe are back with what seems to be their second hit from ‘Mark of Teja’.

This one is the official music video for the single “Dum Hai To Aage Aah!”

You can watch the video here:

The video credits are as follows:

Cast: ‘B-Boys of Dharavi’
Directed by: Srinivas Sunderrajan
DOP : Varun Dutt
Produced by Enter Guerrilla Films

“Dum Hai To Aage Aah!” is a great track and the video is interesting too, though it’s unconventional for a metal band. It’s a no-pretense and no-glamour sort of video, and one that will hold your attention for the 3-odd minutes. This one should go up on TV channels soon, so we’ll keep you updated.

Gig Review: Scribe at SPE, Kolkata

On an unconventional version (not to mention, facetious) of the clichéd list of 1001 things do before you die, watching Scribe in Calcutta (I refuse to refer to it as Kolkata) sits comfortably and peculiarly at # 337, sandwiched between ‘a truce for the Middle east nations’ (336) and ‘closure for the JFK assassination conspiracy’ (338) because it’s one of the most acausal events in the country (unlike a solution to the middle east predicament), yet it had baffling consequences (making it more elusive than the Dealey plaza blow to the Kennedy’s).
