Skillet Announces New Album ‘Rise’: Unveils Details

Rock group Skillet have announced that they will be releasing their ninth studio album Rise on June 25th. The album is the followup to 2009′s Awake and is produced by Howard Benson (My Chemical Romance, All American Rejects). It also serves as the band’s first concept album, telling the story of an American teenager coming into adulthood.

Bassist/singer John Cooper states, “The narrative idea happened after we had 10 or 11 of the songs chosen. As we recorded them, we started to realize that there was something going on—that the album was really telling a story. Realizing that, I knew we needed to make it as powerful as we could.

The album’s first single “Sick Of It” will be available on iTunes on April 9th. READ MORE

Trash Talk To Release ‘Awake’ 7 Inch

I couldn’t be more excited to spread the word that Trash Talk will be releasing a new 7″ titled “Awake” on True Panther. Trash Talk are among one of the heaviest hardcore/punk acts in the game right now and their new video for “Awake” couldn’t be a better example. There will only be 1,416 copies released so it’s probably in your best interest to pick this up immediately from True Panther. Now enjoy the video for “Awake” or die!

 
Check out the artwork for “Awake” below the break! Also go skate!
