Skillet is a Christian rock band formed
in Memphis, Tennessee in the mid-90s. They span
the musical genres from grunge to techno, nu
metal to alternative rock. They were heavily
influenced by the bands Mortal and Fold Zandura.
First recording an album in 1996, Skillet
originally had three members: John Cooper, Trey
McClurkin (drums), and Ken Steorts (guitar).
These original members also recorded their
second CD together. With their third CD, John's
wife Korey joined the band in the keyboards, Ken
Steorts left the band and Kevin Haaland joined.
Soon after the release of Invincible however,
Trey McClurkin also left, and Lori Peters began
playing drums. Kevin Haaland left the band
before Alien Youth, and Ben Kasica took over on
guitar.
At the 2006 Ichthus Festival in Kentucky, it was
announced onstage that their new record would be
titled Comatose. Its first two singles
are "Rebirthing" and "Whispers In The Dark" and
was released on October 3, 2006. Cooper has
said, "As soon as my feet hit the stage, I know-
no matter how many people are there- I'm going
to give it everything I've got. I'm going to do
the best show I can do; the wildest show. I'm
gonna rock it. I think we captured that feeling
on our record."
