"The new material is like classic SOTE material being possessed by demons with a modern twist", states Riggs. "I'm excited to get into the studio and start recording. There will be some crazy tracks on this one!"
Scum Of The Earth was formed in late 2003 by Riggs while Rob focused on his movie career. Being the brainchild of Riggs, Scum Of The Earth'smusic focused on a horror/heavy rock theme which he has helped incorporate during his time in Rob Zombie.
The band released Blah Blah Blah...Love Songs For The New Millennium in 200. The follow up, 2007's Sleaze Freak, was also well received and landed album cuts in many movie soundtracks and video games.
In November 2011 Scum Of The Earth signed with Chicago based Goomba Music.

The new album promises to be a step in a new and modern direction while staying true to the roots and original concept of the band. Riggs describes the new material as "classic Scum Of The Earth with a demonic twist".
