vastnessofbeing Just ace from start to finish. Dark in places, even a bit jump-up. Thanks! Favorite track: Losing Your Mind (ft. Naomi Pryor).

Bannerman Simply the best track I have heard from SCAR recently. Excellent old school kung fu sample and kicks in with an offbeat Reece bass. Favorite track: Grasshopper.

Hikari Sakai I'm not the most familiar with SCAR's stuff but I've seen them around here and there, this release was overall good vibes all around, as an album experience this was great :)

Overall Rating: 7.3/10

Favorite Tracks: Count It Off / Caterpillar / The Lane / Anxiety / Bravo Tango / Santa Cruz / Grasshopper / Conductor

about

The SCAR project, a mainstay throughout drum & bass circles for the last 8 years with the duo already leaving several high-profile marks on the Metalheadz back catalogue specifically.

Now with 2 stand out albums to prop them up, 'The Orkyd Project' in 2016 and 'High Fives & Devil Eyes' in 2019, as well as countless other tracks such as 'Caged' and the 'Dark Rider' remix, both of which became instant dancefloor classics.

Fast forward to 2022 and SCAR are about to unveil their third studio album. Entitled 'The Road Less Travelled', we're treated to 16 tracks covering the varied production styles SCAR have pushed since day 1, from the gritty club energy of 'Caterpillar' to the elegant melodies of 'Losing Your Mind', the latter of which sees SCAR once again link up with Naomi Pryor, a pillar of the aforementioned 2016 album.

We're introduced to 2 new vocalists with impressive features from 2Nick8 on 'Count It Off' and KMRS on 'Anxiety', both of whom fit precisely within the spirit of SCAR's productions. An array of contrasting drum patterns can also be found scattered across the album, on deeper cuts like 'Shimmer' and the apache-led 'Conductor'.

Goldie recently referred to SCAR as the "engine block" of drum and bass, a vital component with everything else happening around it and something that every genre needs. They're also the only artist that can claim to have three albums on Metalheadz, a huge sign of Goldie's affirmation and a testament to the duo's uninterrupted stream of quality.

It's great to discover an artist that whilst not new to the DnB music scene is new to me. And now it feels like I'm going to have to buy his entire back catalogue. This is stripped down tech DnB that is so well thought out. 4 incredible tracks that are sonic magic. Love it. And plus if you buy the vinyl as I did you get a piece of Epods artwork on the cover.....come on it don't get better than that. underflux

well done! pure dope, fantastic output by quartz. metalheadz is such a great label! quartz has his own sound, blacklist fits perfectly to the metalheadz tradition. it is both kind of retro and futuristic. highly recommended, play it loud, the bass kicks:-) that's the way i like it. quartz became quickly my favourite producer in this kind of music. dub orange
