Axxerous' Music World

"Artist of the Year nominee Skillet's explosive 2006 Lava/Atlantic/Ardent/INO Records GRAMMY-nominated release, Comatose follows 2004's Collide, which launched the group into the public eye and garnered the band their first prestigious Grammy nomination. A critical fave, Comatose has become their best-selling project to date, doubling the sales of Collide in half the time. In follow up to packed out headline club shows, a tour with Flyleaf, and summer festivals Skillet spent last fall opening for mainstream rockers Breaking Benjamin and Three Days Grace. In the process of becoming one of the hardest working, most rocking, and broadly appealing acts of its generation, radio welcomed Comatose with open arms, as the first single, "Rebirthing" spent seven-weeks at No.1 on Christian Rock. Their second single, "The Last Night," also took the top spot, this time at both Rock and CHR (CRW/R&R), while their latest singles, "The Older I Get" (CHR/Rock) and "Comatose," which received a 2008 GMA Dove Award for "Rock Song of the Year," have become their third and fourth consecutive No. 1 singles. At the end of 2007 the band was lauded with R&R's No. 1 Christian CHR Song of the Year for "The Last Night", which was also R&R's No. 2 Christian Rock song of the year. In addition, Skillet was named 2007s No. 2 top artist on both the CHR and ROCK year end lists. " - Taken from the Biography section on Skillet's Myspace page.

 

Skillet by far is my most favorite artist ever.  I was attached to them from the moment I first heard "Rebirthing".  Their songs always keep me rocking and I never get tired of them.  their style is amazing, and they just keep getting better!  The members are absolutely amazing, for they are great people, and keep us up to date and laughing at their amazing podcasts.  I don't think music can get any better than Skillet.
