Look for French punks The Scaners to crash land their psychedelic space ship on the West Coast of the United States this coming November. The band’s first-ever visit will feature two nights in the Seattle area including a stop at Lucky Liquor in Tukwila and the Freakout Festival in Ballard. The Scaners will also be joining The Briefs for a few dates on their European tour this coming December. You can find a list of the upcoming shows after the video embed below.
Additionally, the band follows-up on their 2019 LP II (Dirty Water Records/Adrenalin Fix Music) with a new 7″ featuring a little nugget off the long-player called “X Ray Glasses: On.” An exact release date is yet to be announced but it is expected out in December via a consortium of labels including Adrenalin Fix Music, Dangerhouse Skylab, Spaghetty Town Records, and Ghost Highway Recordings. Below, you can watch the band’s video for “X Ray Glasses: On” directed by Hugo “Frogy” Reymond.
Had your fill of news from The Scaners? I doubt it! The group will also be included on a French tribute album for The Fall. Put together by the label Teenage Hate Records, the compilation is due out November 15th. The Scaners will cover the track “Sparta FC,” and the cut features Xanthos Papanikolaou from Bazooka.
