Josh Scogin is a metalcore vocalist born in Atlanta, Georgia. He gained recognition as the lead vocalist of the band Norma Jean. Then, currently became the lead vocalist for the band The Chariot. After recording a split CD, an EP, and two full length CDs, after which he left shortly before the release of their second album, "Bless the Martyr and Kiss the Child". With the release of this album Scogin gained reputation as a metalcore musician. “I wish I had some great story about a big fight or aliens or something,” Scogin stated, "But really it was just something that I felt led to do.” [http://www.hardcoresounds.net/modules.php?name=Band_List&file=viewer&func=725] Shortly after leaving Norma Jean, Scogin started the band "The Chariot", saying he “Creating something out of nothing ... It is the basic concept of art.” The Chariot released their first album, "Everything Is Alive, Everything Is Breathing, Nothing Is Dead, and Nothing Is Bleeding" in late 2004. The record was raw and unpolished, including feedback throughout the album. In June of 2005 Josh was co-producer of As Cities Burn's debut album "Son, I Loved You At Your Darkest". He performed guest vocals on the track "Admission: Regret". A year after "Everything Is Alive, Everything Is Breathing, Nothing Is Dead, and Nothing Is Bleeding" had been released, Scogin and the rest of The Chariot went on to release the "Unsung EP". After a major line-up change the band went back into the studio to record what Scogin said would "define who The Chariot" was. In April 2007, The Chariot released their second full length album entitled "The Fiancée". In late 2007 Josh and April had a baby girl.

Scogin is a self-proclaimed Christian, and the lyrics from both of his bands reflect his religious beliefs.
