The Scarred
The Scarred is an American Punk Rockn'roll band formed in 2003 in Anaheim, CA, now based out of North Hollywood, CA. Staple members are Justin Scarred (Vocals, Guitar), Matt "Monkey" Hatcher (Bass guitar, vocals), and since 2007, Ben Nine-K (Drums).
The Scarred is known for self-releasing their first album and for the relentless touring in the beginning of their career. As of January 2012, they have issued over ten releases, including four full length albums. In 2005, the band was signed by the legendary Punk Core records, which has often led people to falsely associate them with Street Punk. While The Scarred toured and played with many of the key bands of the Street Punk era, they have always described their sound as "Punkrocknroll," "Garage Punk," and their influences range from 1977 Punk Rock, to 60's soul, Delta Blues, Motown, R&B, and 50's rock and roll.
Continuing to stay independent, The Scarred most recently signed to Jailhouse Records, (A punk and indie label based out of Virginia) releasing their fourth–and most diverse–full length album, "Live Fast Die Poor."
The official description from their current press kit (reproduced here with permission) is as follows: After ten records, and twenty nationwide tours, The Scarred has become less of a band and more of an urban legend. The Scarred stands as one of Southern California's most battle hardened and best kept rock n' roll secrets. It's more than just music. It's alienation, isolation, and degradation. A distant crackled song blasted through the broken speaker of your radio. It's a cold lonely road accompanied by nothing more than a guitar and a notebook full of stories. The Scarred is the last of a dying breed, the last cigarette in the pack, the last drop in the bottle. It's rock, punk, blues, and soul wrapped into one. This isn't a message of hope, it's an out right battle cry to those who still believe in music. Bloody, beaten, and raw, song after song, their name rings truer than ever. They refuse to stop. They refuse to quit. The needle on your record player will throw in the towel long before this band does. This is The Scarred.
