“Monolithium” has a pulverising, gyrating ferocity that unstoppably grinds through the gears to a riotous peak, perfectly capturing the unrelenting raw energy of the band’s notorious live shows. The track stands as a powerful statement of intent for the EP with SCALPING continuing to defy classification, whilst honing and expanding on their propulsive and entirely inimitable sound.
Alongside the new EP and single, SCALPING have also announced further live dates for 2021 including their rescheduled tour dates with Squarepusher (an early supporter of the group) and sold-out Peckham Audio headline show. Dates are as follows…
