Skillet formed way back in 1996 and throughout
their massive career they have gone on to release
8 albums however throughout the majority of their
career they have remained pretty much unknown
in the UK until this year when they came over
to play a few shows and also played an explosive
set at the Download Festival at Castle Donington
in June and now the band are set to head back
to the UK any day now and also embark on a full
blown European tour and to coincide with that
they have decided to release a career encompassing
album called ‘Vital Signs’ and they
have just released the massive ‘Monster’
from ‘Vital Signs’ as a single.
‘Monster’ is a hard rocking song which
oozes in speed, seriously this song is frantic
from start to finish and is one hell of a mosh
pit anthem and when you hear the song you start
to wonder why Skillet have been kept a secret
for so many years and only properly known in America
as they quite simply rock and ‘Monster’
is easily one of the best rock anthems of the
year as it has the knack to make you forget about
all your worries for 3minutes whilst you rock
out in the comfort of your own room.
It is about time that Skillet get the recognition
they deserve in the UK as they are one powerful
rock band who have a back catalogue of killer
tunes and if you think ‘Monster’ is
good then you are in for a serious treat when
you look back at the bands impressive back catalogue.
5/5
Skillet - Monster
