Just who is this band called "Scrapegoat"? Well, they're from Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada - and that's pretty far up north. Made up of four members - Brahm Taylor (vocals, guitar), Myke Marykuca (bass, vocals), Travis Armour (guitar) and Mel Sabourin (original drummer now back with the band), the quartet took the Yellowknife music scene by storm over the summer of '95. Their hard-rockin' music can be described as a younger, more raw Tragically Hip, but that description doesn't go far enough. You have to see them live, get caught up in that Scrapegoat-atmostphere, to really experience what Scrapegoat is all about.

The album has now been released! NEW FAN MAN was officially released in Yellowknife on December 9th, 1995, and within only a couple weeks since it's release - after numerous "release parties") and strong airplay on the radio station, the album has been proven to be very popular. To quote guitarist Travis Armour, "...is pretty fucking decent for a first go...".

Everyone has heard about Scrapegoat, but now they can hear Scrapegoat! Produced at Spiritwalker Productions by Travis and Myke, the album has 10 songs on it: One Night Stand, Eulogy Girl, Pearl, Drano, Drano, Potato, Would You, Kill the Animal, Plane, and Blue Lady. With their first release under their belts, the band plans on moving to Vancouver in the spring of 1996 and play their tunes for a wider audience. One thing is sure - this is only the start...

Interesting little tidbit: the album is named after a curious little man who was at every one of their shows with a bag of Doritos? Well, he's now a star, as he graces the album cover!
