Scream Announce New Album for Dischord Records, Share Song: Listen

Scream, the hardcore band hailing from Virginia, is making a triumphant return with their upcoming album, “DC Special.” This highly-anticipated release marks their first album in a whopping twelve years and is set to hit the shelves on November 10 through Dischord Records. But wait, there’s more excitement – they’ve generously shared a sneak peek with the track “DC Special Sha La La.” So, without further ado, let’s dive into the details of this thrilling announcement, including the tracklist and the band’s tour dates.

Skeeter Enoch Thompson, Kent Stax, and the formidable Stahl brothers, Franz and Pete, first graced our ears with their collaborative effort, “Still Screaming,” back in 1983. Fast forward to the present, and they’ve reunited for “DC Special.” This new masterpiece was crafted with the help of Don Zientara and Ian Mackaye, who lent their expertise at Zientara’s legendary Inner Ear Studio. Sadly, this iconic studio’s original location closed its doors in 2021, making this album even more special.

Now, about the album itself – “DC Special” doesn’t just feature the core members of Scream; it’s a collaborative effort featuring talents like Amy Pickering, Mark Cisneros, Joe Lally, and more. And here’s the cherry on top: Dave Grohl, yes, that Dave Grohl, who once drummed for the band in the late ’80s, makes a special appearance on “DC Special.”

If you’re wondering about Scream’s recent musical journey, their last offering was the “Complete Control Recording Sessions EP” back in 2011. And their most recent studio album before “DC Special” was “Fumble” in 1993. So, needless to say, this album marks a momentous return for the band and their dedicated fans.
