Death Defier Skillet rally around ten insurgent, infectious, and inimitable anthems on their aptly titled twelfth full-length offering and first-ever independent album, Revolution. The band serve up their signature arena-shaking rock uplifted by soaring guitar solos, hard-hitting riffs, cinematic strings, and some of the catchiest and most confident choruses of their storied career to date. From the tongue-in-cheek, barnstorming first single “Unpopular,” the unpredictable and undeniable dynamics of “Ash In The Wind,” and fist-pumping clarion call of “Not Afraid” to the swaggering opener “Show Time” and tender ballad “Happy Wedding Day (Alex’s Song),” this is Skillet reignited, re-energized, and ready for revolution. SKILLET BOILER After nearly three decades, eleven albums, and thousands of shows worldwide, Skillet play louder, fight harder, and sound more rebellious than ever. As of 2024, the band have received two-time GRAMMY® Award nominations, picked up a Billboard Music Award, and landed three albums in the Top 5 of the Billboard 200. Selling over 22 million units worldwide, they have notched multi-platinum, platinum, or gold RIAA certifications for a total of 12 singles and four full-length albums. Not to mention, they have regularly attracted 10 million monthly listeners on Spotify, boasting “one of the most-streamed rock songs of all-time” with the 5x-platinum “Monster.” Their presence has impressively surged throughout popular culture with syncs by WWE, Marvel, ESPN, and NFL in addition to coverage from USA Today, The New York Times, and more. As a live force of nature, they have touched down on four continents and in 26 countries, packing arenas everywhere from the Middle East to Russia. Not to mention, Skillet expanded their world with the graphic novel series EDEN. The first installment stood out as Z2 Comics’ best-selling book of all-time. Now, the global hard rock quartet—John Cooper [lead vocals, bass], Korey Cooper [guitar, keys], Jen Ledger [drums, vocals], and Seth Morrison [lead guitar]—deliver an insurgent, infectious, and inimitable body of work with their twelfth full-length offering and first-ever independent album, Revolution, led by the single “Unpopular.” BAND QUOTE FOR “UNPOPULAR” Fittingly, Skillet come out of the gate swinging with the single “Unpopular.” Exuding confidence, it hinges on a hard-hitting guitar groove and swaggering rhythm. A shotgun blast, Ric Flair-inspired “Woo,” and wailing guitar lead perfectly complement the tongue-in-cheek lyrics as John muses, “I think today’s a good day to be unpopular.” “It’s lighthearted, but there’s a clear message,” he goes on. “So many people don’t have a place to belong. You used to know your neighbors. Our communities are online now, which contributes to the loneliness. You have powerful people telling you what reality is, what you should eat, what you should drive, and how you should live. They deem us ‘unpopular’. In reality, we agree more than we disagree as a society. The majority of people just want to be free and they don’t really care whether or not you agree with them about everything. I don’t mind being ‘unpopular’ to powers-that-be who think I should shut up!”
