Scardust

History

Previously known as Somnia.

Scardust, the foremost progressive metal band in Israel, features some of the finest musicians in the Israeli metal scene. Their music, rooted deeply in the classical world, though thematic and at times complex, manages to generate an anthemic familiarity in which band and audience sing in glorious unison.

The band's EP, 'Shadow' (2015) positioned them as a promising new comer, while their follow up effort, 'Sands of Time' (2017) cemented them as the leading progressive metal band in the country. On October 30th, the sophomore full-length album 'Strangers' was relesaed via M-Theory Audio.

The band is particularly known for their often sold out live shows and have opened for the likes of Symphony X, Therion and Epica.
