Vocalist / guitarist Dave Khan comments: 
"Scythia is honoured to be nominated for an Indie Award. It's great to know that our fellow Canadians appreciate our unconventional take on metal.  It's killer to be doing this alongside such heavyweights in the scene and this is the fuel to keep going and push this project further!"

Following the success of their 2010 “…Of War” and 2011 “…Of Exile” albums, Scythia unleashed their 2012 scorcher, “For the Bear". The short, but sweet seven-track EP departs from the orchestration and central concept of its predecessors, instead representing a leaner, faster, sharper folk metal machine.

'For The Bear' EP is now streaming below.
