Scale The Summit To Miss Show Due To Injury
Scale The Summit has issued the following announcement about guitarist Chris Letchford injuring his finger:
"It's every guitar player's worst nightmare...but last night Chris had a pocket knife close on his fingertip cutting it all the way down to the bone while fixing a part of our merch booth sign.
"An ER visit and some stitches later, he'll be just fine, but unfortunately we're unable play the show in Denver, CO today and possibly a few more, time will tell.
"We need time for Chris' finger to heal and time to create backing tracks for several songs Chris can't play in the event that he still isn't healed enough when we resume the tour. This way, we can still present as much of a Scale the Summit show as we possibly can on the remaining dates, given the circumstances.
"We apologize profusely in advance to our fans and we hope to be back soon to make it up to you. Please go support our brothers in Monuments, Reflections, Erra and Glass Cloud! Please stay tuned here on our page for updates on the next few shows." More...
Scale The Summit Announces Vinyl Reissue
Prosthetic Records has issued the following announcement about releasing a vinyl edition of "Carving Desert Canyons" from Scale The Summit:
"As 2008 came to a close, heavy music was beginning to show signs of a transformation. At the top of the food chain, Metallica was actively promoting their new album 'Death Magnetic,' but year-end 'best-of' lists were instead populated with adventurous, forward-thinking acts like Opeth, Meshuggah, Enslaved, Gojira and the recently reunited Cynic. 2008 was also the first year in more than a decade with no Ozzfest tour, which furthered the sense of an imminent paradigm shift for the genre.
"In a different climate, a group that specialized in instrumental melodic progressive metal might have struggled to catch people’s attention. Luckily for Scale The Summit, though, the time was right to make an immediate impact. The group had already self-released one well-received album, but their Prosthetic debut 'Carving Desert Canyons' — released in February of 2009 — formally introduced the Texas quartet to the world at large. Its timeless, classic-minded progressive hard rock was hailed by Guitar World as 'full of tightly-woven guitar interplay, irregular time signatures and tasteful licks,' while Revolver called the album 'a cinematic blast of intricately melodic fretwork and pummeling percussion.'
"The biggest endorsement of all, however, came from drum legend Mike Portnoy, who hand-picked Scale The Summit to open Dream Theater’s Progressive Nation summer tour that year. Additional tours with Protest The Hero, Between The Buried and Me, Cynic and Devin Townsend capped off an incredible 12 months that cemented the group’s arrival on the scene and solidified their reputation as a rising star in contemporary metal.
