Beyond The Scar

Beyond The Scar is a high-energy modern metal act out of Baltimore, Maryland. Constructed in early 2006, BTS wasted no time gaining a name for themselves, with a combined 50-plus years' experience brought to the table. Local frontman Kory G set out to put together an all-star cast with a sound and image that would stand apart, and appear not-so-ordinary. Well-renowned and respected axeman Thane Farace quickly contacted Kory, looking to put together two powerhouses into one fold. Joined by Raye Morris on bass and Mike Shallcross on drums - Beyond The Scar took off and hit the ground running. Medical conditions forced Raye to step down in December of 2006, and Mike's busy schedule prevented him from comitting to the full-throttle schedule, leaving him without a choice but to retire from BTS as well.
Rather than fold, Kory G and Thane pressed on and set out to find the area's best guys to fill the voids on bass and drums. Enter drummer Chris Pernia. Chris, known for his death metal speed and precision from his time with Pessimist and Psychtogen, brought just the style and charisma that BTS was looking for. Finally, bassist Jay Katzenberger was added to the fold. A co-worker of Thane's and world music performer, Jay quickly chaged gears and filled the vacant slot to solidify the lineup. Beyond The Scar was once again solid and complete.
BTS executes a one-two power punch of metal that sets themselves apart....taking chances is not only typical of Beyond The Scar, it's a requirement. Delivering a diverse mix of today's and yesterday's metal sounds, BTS takes pride in straying from the norm. Get off your asses and get to a show soon......
