I got my first taste of Skillet in the early 2000’s just after I came to know the Lord. I was drawn to their raw, gritty, heavy sound because, musically, I heard some similarities to Marilyn Manson, a band I’d been a tremendous fan of in my B.C. days. As the years went by, as is to be expected, the band’s sound changed a bit, mellowing here and there, adding string sections, adding electronic sounds (or at least making them a bit more prominent), having a much more produced sound, songs that are more radio friendly…the list goes on.… Continued →

Skillet has release a music video for their single, “Legendary”, which will appear on the band’s upcoming release, “Victorious”, which is set to release August 2nd on Atlantic Records. This particular song is a very good representation of what you can expect from the new album with some tracks heavier, some as heavy, and others mellower. You take the average of all of the varied intensities/styles and you’d get this particular song. I’ll be posting a review on this album in the near future, so stay tuned for that, but after having heard it, I’m really looking forward to picking it up.… Continued →

When I tap out news blurbs here, I try to do 2 things; not interject my own personal opinions and I try and keep them short and to the point. Here, I will fail on both counts. White Collar Sideshow, to the uninitiated, is a band that relies heavily on more than just sound, but also on sight and story and they’re really big on symbolism. I’ve had the honor and privilege of knowing these fine folks both through their art as well as on a personal level, albeit, it’s been a while now since we last spoke or saw each other.… Continued →
