Sam Scumaci

Rising out of the ashes of projects The Graveyard Redemption and Scumaci, Sam Scumaci felt it was time to take matters into his own hands. This one time, industrial side project is a new chapter in the Scumaci novel. It shows a newer, more creative side to Sam, but also at the same time brings him back to his evil; sinister roots.

Once again, the album became in high demand.
