About

Soulscar

Label: Galy Records
circa 1997 - circa 2006
Andrew Staehling : Guitars/Vocals
Brent Mackenzie : Bass/Vocals

Igor Cheifot : Drums
Stas Mikheev : Guitars


From humble beginnings in 1997 as a solo project of Andrew Staehling, Soulscar quickly developed their slicing hybrid of thrash, death and heavy metal to a savage level. Demo after demo, the critics returned universal praise. 2002 saw the band at a critical point. An injection of new blood in the form of Brent Mackenzie (bass) led to the recording of their debut album: Character Assassination, a superbly written riff-fest which garnered countless rave reviews in the metal community.

2003 brought major progress. The band signed to Galy Records for exclusive distribution of Character Assassination, and recruited metal machines Igor Cheifot (drums) and Stas Mikheev (guitars). Soulscar now had a full lineup and quickly took Vancouver by storm with their punishing live show. The band have now finished their second album, a phenomenal collection of ultra-memorable metal anthems. Victim Impact Statement is here, a fiery collection of some of the best metal songs of 2004.
