Scorpion Child - Thy Southern Sting

Review by Ramesh Neupane

Thy Southern Sting, the second studio album by American rock band Scorpion Child, was released in 2016 to critical acclaim. The album showcases the band's signature blend of classic rock, heavy metal, and blues, all infused with a distinctly Southern flavor.

The album opens with the energetic track "She Sings, I Kill," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The band's powerful vocals and guitar riffs are on full display throughout, particularly on standout tracks like "My Woman in Black" and "Reaper's Danse."

The album's title track, "Thy Southern Sting," is a slow-burning blues number that highlights the band's versatility and ability to switch between different genres seamlessly. The haunting instrumental track "Winter Side of Deranged" provides a welcome break from the high-energy rock and roll, showcasing the band's impressive musicianship.
