SCOUR, the new extreme metal "supergroup" featuring Philip Anselmo (PANTERA, DOWN, SUPERJOINT) alongside members of CATTLE DECAPITATION and PIG DESTROYER, has released its debut track titled "Dispatched". The song is taken from SCOUR's self-titled debut EP, which will be released on July 15 via Anselmo's Housecore label. SCOUR is: * Phillip H. Anselmo (PANTERA, DOWN, SUPERJOINT) - Vocals * Derek Engemann (CATTLE DECAPITATION) - Guitar * Chase Fraser (ANIMOSITY) - Guitar * John Jarvis (PIG DESTROYER) - Bass * Jesse Schobel (STRONG INTENTION) – Drums In a 2015 interview with Hellbound.ca, Anselmo stated about the new project: "The SCOUR thing was something that just popped up, and it's something that I think I can kill, something I can lay it out. They're short songs. It's a short EP." Anselmo continued: "I think [there's] one of the fellows from CATTLE DECAPITATION, but it's predominantly, in my ear, modern-ish black metal-sounding, thrashy black metal-type stuff. I'm going to put my own spin on it. I don't have to sound like your boy from GORGOROTH [laughs] to get the point across, man. There's other ways of singing over that style of music, and I shall employ many styles." In a 2012 interview with Terrorizer magazine, Anselmo said about his varied musical taste: "I am a lover of all sorts of music but really my heart is ... really I love extreme music, underground music, whether it be grindcore, death metal, thrash, black metal, [or whatever other] subgenre, and I find beauty in a lot of this stuff." An official SCOUR Facebook page has been launched at this location.
