The Scourger

Defunct melodic death / thrash metal band from Helsinki, Finland. Founded in 2003 by ex-Gandalf vocalist Jari Hurskainen together with Seppo Tarvainen on drums. In 2009 Jari and Seppo decided to end their creative co-operation and split the band. Jari was to continue with the band, whilst the other members where to start a new band together. Until the end of 2010 two new guitarists and a bass player joined the band. However, the drummer position had never been filled again in the coming years. Eventually, the band's members started to drift apart working on other projects and The Scourger ceased to exist.
