Stocking thousands of CDs, DVDs, vinyl, shirts, tickets and various other collectables, Scrape quickly become known as "the" place to visit for metal pilgrims from all over the world. An online presence was established in 1998 with www.scraperecords.com, helping the store's reputation grow even stronger. Major recent in-store signing sessions from ALICE COOPER, TESTAMENT and OPETH have brought out hundreds of fellow "disciples" lined up around the block, with previous signing sessions from ARCH ENEMY, IN FLAMES, MESHUGGAH, CHILDREN OF BODOM, CANNIBAL CORPSE, LAMB OF GOD, CRADLE OF FILTH, STRAPPING YOUNG LAD, AMON AMARTH and many more.
