SIGNS OF THE SWARM share new single “Scars Upon Scars”

Pittsburgh Deathcore titans SIGNS OF THE SWARM, have released their crushing new single “Scars Upon Scars”, the third track from their upcoming album, “To Rid Myself of Truth”, out August 22nd via Century Media Records. Produced by Josh Schroeder (LORNA SHORE, KING 810), the track blends the band’s signature brutality with industrial and djent-influenced textures, pushing their evolving sound even further.

Clocking in at around three minutes, “Scars Upon Scars” is a no-frills assault of heavy riffs and punishing rhythms. It follows previous singles “HELLMUSTFEARME” and “Clouded Retinas,” adding more fuel to the fire as anticipation builds for the full album.

The album features guest appearances from Will Ramos (Lorna Shore), Phil Bozeman (Whitechapel), and others, showcasing a refreshed lineup that includes David Simonich, Bobby Crow, Carl Schulz, and Michael Cassese. The band will support the release with a North American tour this autumn alongside METALCRUELTY and TEN56., with more dates expected in 2026.

After writing breakout 5th LP “Amongst The Low & Empty” (2023) almost entirely in-studio, SIGNS OF THE SWARM geared up to do it again on “To Rid Myself Of Truth”.

This stint’s 7-week lead timE, PLUS the in-studio time, was a veritable vacation for the band, with the addition of guitarist/backing vocalist Carl Schulz adding a whole other set of riffing hands (and vocal chords) to the band. It was plenty of time for the now-quartet, rounded out by bassist Michael Cassese, to craft metal exactly as they think it should sound: MORE. PISSED. And it is. Musically the album’s edges are far more serrated than their last’s flirtations with djenty bounce.

Bobby Crow – Drums
David Simonich – Vocals
