Sons of Arrakis are making a statement with their latest single, “Scattering,” off their sophomore album, Volume II, set to be released on June 7th.
Established in 2019, the Canadian band released their debut album Volume I in 2022 and says this of the song,
“‘Scattering’ is a departure from the intricate compositions of Volume I, presenting a more straightforward yet captivating musical expression. Rooted in our sci-fi desert rock tradition, reminiscent of The Black Mirror, this single serves as a bridge to Volume II, where we venture into progressive territories with syncopated signature riffs, more complex bridges, well thought transitions and harmonized guitar elements.”
Echoes of bands like Iron Maiden and Black Sabbath permeate ”Scattering”, evoking a sense of nostalgia for seasoned listeners while offering a refreshing take on classic sounds.
Capturing the essence of Sons of Arrakis‘ dynamic style, “Scattering” features driving rhythms, wailing guitars, and vocals that resonate with the energy and vibrancy. With their unique fusion of old-school vibes and contemporary flair, “Scattering” is nostalgic yet fresh.
