THE SKULL - Original TROUBLE Members Streaming New Song
October 4, 2014, 10 years ago
"Till The Sun Turns Black", a brand new song from The Skull featuring original Trouble members vocalist Eric Wagner and drummer Jeff “Oly” Olson, alongside longtime former Trouble bassist Ron Holzner and guitarists Lothar Keller (Sacred Dawn)and Matt Goldsborough (Pentagram), is now available for streaming via the Sound Cloud link below. The track is taken from the band's debut album, For Those Which Are Asleep, which will be released worldwide on Tuesday, November 4th via Tee Pee Records.
Written and recorded this past spring, For Those Which Are Asleep features ten tracks of elemental heavy metal and is the first full length album to feature Wagner, Holzner and Olson since the 1995 release of Trouble's Plastic Green Head album. The new record's greatest strength is how well it captures the apocalyptic trudge that Trouble delivered from the first downbeat of their 1984 debut, but now unequivocally propelled by the hallmarks of a hungry new band fueled by new blood. The mighty voice of Wagner is on full display; the vocalist proving on For Those Which Are Asleep that he still wields an eerie power at the mic. Titanic riffs abound as Keller and Goldsborough weave ominous atmospheres over the molten, crushing core of Holzner and Olson's sinister strut.
Make no mistake, The Skkull are in complete command of their craft and have capably created a modern classic; a recording where atmosphere is established as drums crash, guitars blare and stories are told.
