Took me a long time indeed to get this Scaregodin the cd format…well, I am the guy who prefers traditional media only so I waited patiently to get my hard copy. And on top of that, wasn’t that easy to get this cd in Poland at all, despite the fact a considerably big label released this album in our country. Surprisingly, the label which has a lot of experience with our metal music market (including BEHEMOTH`s albums) has had no intention of proper promoting this (undeniably) good album spawned by BETRAYER. Yes, I want to say that BETRAYER`s Scaregod passed virtually unnoticed. Agrave mistake really, as, in my view, this is one of better albums to have been out in Poland over the last couple of years. I will tell you something else: this stuff should be sent over to DEICIDE and MORBID ANGEL to remind them how old-school death metal needs to be performed. I was also surprised not to see BETRAYERscheduled for any tour promoting Scaregod. No BETRAYER at Mystic Festival either…does it mean our own bands are to be treated shitty in our own country? Does this album need to be re-released by a Western label so that a full potential of BETRAYER`s music can be fully appreciated? Such a situationmust be a truly painful experience for musicians. The good thing is BETRAYERare die-hard, well-seasoned guys who do what is to be done and don’t give a damn. They don’t give up but keep on fighting and creating excellent death metal. I hope some big, Western label sees the potential in BETRAYER and their future becomes brighter than it is surely now. I also hope Scaregodgets re-released on vinyl, as this band deserves the noblest of media. And don’t forget that their legendary Calamitywas out exactly 25 years ago. Hope to see BETRAYER performing live shows to commemorate this very special anniversary!!!!
