The New Black guitarist / Who Brought The Dog frontman Fabian "Fabs" Schwarz has launched a new thrash project dubbed Monoskull. He has checked in with a teaser accompanied by the following message:

"It was about time to make some serious noise again, so here is my new project, Monoskull; a simple thrash three piece without any fancy bullshit. Just riffs and fun played with my buddies Sven and Philipp!"

Check out a teaser below. Go to the official Monoskull Facebook page here.

Fabs kept himself busy during lockdown with more musical experimentation. He recently released a full album of '80s-inspired synth wave tunes under the moniker SixMixSix. Prior to the album release, Schwarz unleashed a lyric video for the non-album track "Third Eye" featuring vocalist Alen Ljubic.

Following is Schwarz's announcement for the SixMixSix debut:

"It is finally here! Grab your headphones, choose a platform and have a nice 40 minute trip. I would recommend Bandcamp because of the best available quality out there. If you want to support this project, tell it to your synthwave friends and share the album. Peace out."

Check it out via the player below. The album is also available via Soundcloud and Spotify.

Tracklist:

"The Howler"
"Antarktos"
"Evening Star"
"Continuity"
"Star Winds"
