Evil Scarecrow has today released their new single titled ‘The Future Machine’, from their upcoming album ‘Silicon Tea’, dropping this October. As if announcing the return of air guitar as an art form, Evil Scarecrow makes a niche out of the kitsch in such a triumphant form that full submission is hard to ignore.
Anthemic and anarchic, ‘The Future Machine’ is a looking glass to a simpler time in music when headbangers had a ball and summer stadiums were filled with the willing in glorious moshpits of decadence and desire.
About Evil Scarecrow & ‘The Future Machine’
Evil Scarecrow returns with their new single “The Future Machine” to be released on Monday, 11th August 2025. This is the latest single from the forthcoming album “Silicon Tea” due for release in October 2025. The band will be launching a Kickstarter campaign for the physical release shortly.
“The Future Machine” is a love letter to the 80s, taking us back to simpler times, dripping with dystopian nostalgia and sprinkled with Evil Scarecrow’s staple humour and style. When asked to explain this track, Dr. Hell said:
“In today’s crazy world, it’s important to consider an age-old debate: With the impending threat of WW3, Trump being a big old shite and I dunno, global warming, it’s time we tackle the toughest question of them all, which was the best decade?
Well, it was the 80s. We also had the impending threat of WW3, Trump was undoubtedly doing shite things, and global warming was here to stay. We had hairspray that destroyed the ozone layer. Cool times. So cool, we thought we should jump on the “Stranger Things” bandwagon and crank out some 80s Nostalgia. For a change, we threw some robots in.
So, if you love 80s rock and metal, lame movie references, and robots (again), then this song will make you horny like an 80s teenager watching Weird Science. But hopefully less inappropriate. What were they even thinking? Man, the 80s were so wrong. Glad we didn’t write a song about it…”
We all take a moment to reflect, and Kraven Morrdeth adds, “I f**kin’ love movies”.
