Scorpion Child formed in Austin, Texas, in 2006 as an acoustic partnership between vocalist Aryn Jonathan Black and guitarist Asa Savage. As the lineup expanded, the group developed a heavier sound shaped by blues rock, early heavy metal, psychedelic music, and the dramatic sweep of 1970s hard rock.
The independently released Thy Southern Sting EP arrived in 2009 with six songs, including “Throat Palace,” “Million Lines,” and “Red Devil Sun.” The following year brought the limited single “Livin’ with a Witch” backed with “Heartattack Thighs,” documenting the group before its first full-length record.
Scorpion Child signed with Nuclear Blast and released its self-titled debut album in 2013. Produced and arranged by Chris “Frenchie” Smith, the record featured “Kings Highway,” “Polygon of Eyes,” “The Secret Spot,” “Liquor,” and “Red Blood (The River Flows).” Expanded versions also included the Lucifer’s Friend cover “Keep Goin’” and the digital bonus track “Lover’s Leap.”
The band followed with the 2015 single “She Sings, I Kill,” backed by the exclusive recording “(Enter the) Twilight Coven.” That year also brought a live release from the Good Music Club and Scorpion Child’s version of Black Sabbath’s “Hole in the Sky” for a tribute collection.
Acid Roulette arrived in 2016 as a 13-song concept album centered on a man imprisoned after being betrayed and forced into a false confession. “Reaper’s Danse,” “My Woman in Black,” “Séance,” “Moon Tension,” and “Addictions” pushed the band toward a heavier and more progressive form of its blues-based hard rock.
After a long period of lineup changes and interrupted activity, Scorpion Child returned with the 2023 demo of “Hanging Sun.” The singles “Outliers” and “Be the Snake” followed in 2024, introducing a darker direction influenced by gothic rock, post-punk, and dark wave without abandoning the band’s heavy-metal foundation.
The third studio album, I Saw The End As It Passed Right Through Me, was released on February 14, 2025, through Noize in the Attic Records. Its eight tracks included “Actress,” “See the Shine,” “The Starker,” “Wired Corpse,” “Godskin,” and a completed studio recording of “Hanging Sun.” The album arrived nine years after Acid Roulette and opened a new chapter in the band’s evolving sound.
