The lyric video for the song 'Man of Glass' was created by the drummer - Damyen. You can see it below.
The album cover was created by the Ukrainian artist Vergvoktre, who incorporates an eerie, disturbing and surrealistic vision of humanity in his works.
'Scorn the Idle' sees the band explore a darker, more atmospheric and melodic sound compared to 'Manifesto'. It consists of 9 very diverse songs, that will satisfy both death and black metal fans.
The album was recorded in Sound Division Studio in Warsaw under the watchful eye of Filip Hałucha (Vesania, Heinrich House Studio). The mixing and mastering process was done by Arkadiusz "Malta" Malczewski (Behemoth, Hate, Decapitated).
The song 'Man of Glass' tells the story of meeting a man, that pretending to have good intentions actualy has a destructive influence on your life. Using half-truths, false friendship and mascarade he leads you to a point of no return.
