about

The debut Scrapes full-length released in 2010 on Planet of the Scrapes and All Is Number records. CD version is all but sold out in Australia (copies still available through All Is Number and other retailers). Available now for download here at thescrapes.bandcamp.com for the first time.

"Next, the Scrapes are back with another fucking downer delight to suit your every suicide. Just one year after reviewing their self-titled debut album (see Drudion June 2009CE), violinist Adam Cadell and guitarist Ryan Potter have returned with nine brand new meditations for our delectation; nine ripe-to-the-point of overcast medications for e. guitar & violin, all collected together under the name of ELECTRIC MOURNING BLUES, stuff to drench the listeners’ synapses with a veritable virus of sadness and doom weepage. Far better than last year’s excellent debut, ELECTRIC MOURNING BLUES still sounds like Overhang Party playing the downer bits of the Doctors of Madness, but even more so. And that’s a fucking Useful thing to be hefting our way."

- Julian Cope, Head Heritage, Address Drudion, July 2010

Some may say the riffage is "relentless" and suggest that every song was "an epic that rolls like sinister thunder across the land". I find Merchant an underrated band that hopefully will one day have as much recognition as others. Old Man Doom
