UK black metallers SCYTHIAN have issued the following studio update:

"Bass and vocals for the debut album are now complete. We spent another two days at Dreaming Studios with Leon Macey to face the most major task of the recording process so far. Vrath stormed through his vocal tracks aided only by the black brew known as Guiness. Things went downhill however, when alcohol became involved. An arm-wrestling competition ensued, and shamefully I admit that we were smashed by the two members of MITHRAS. We are sore fucking losers on the other hand and drunkenly proclaimed that we would take revenge on Leon and his seven-foot accomplice, Rayner Coss.

The marvellous state of British engineering ensured that we had a comfortable trip home. Aided by several bottles of whiskey, we spent 5-6 hours on various coaches and terrorised the innocent for every leg of the journey, particularly Volgard, who managed to sit in a phantom pile of puke.

In other news, Vrath or Volgard may have to be replaced. One of them will die in the near future due to an internet bidding war (with each other) over a certain Italian band's entire discography. Vrath has already resorted to dirty tactics and Volgard has promised to make sure the vocalist is deprived of his rent should he obtain these most sacred vinyls.

More to come."

The band's first full-length album and debut for Galactic Record has been revealed as, To Those Who Stand Against Us, set for release in October 2008.

Scythian have scheduled the following summer live dates:

July

5 - Birmingham, UK - Selly Oak

August

6 - Crimea, Ukraine - Metal Heads' Mission Festival

September

4 - Ghent, Belgium - The Frontline
