 "Guitar squeels like out-of-control taxi's, Drum's tumble and roll like molten lava from a rampant volcano and, finally, sitting a top this vicious coalescence are powerful vocals that announce: 'In this silence that i can hear again'. Welcome to your New Skinn!" (Beat Magazine)
NEW SKINN was formed in 2005 but no one knew what was to come until the final member of this impressive act completed the line up in 2008. With powerful riffs, shredding leads, Phil G's soaring signature vocals, Xman's intense and untamed beats and GreekMan's cutting edge bass sound, NEW SKINN has brought together a wide range of their influences and developed their own unique sound, that is NEW SKINN.
In 2006, NEW SKINN released their debut EP "Cause & Effect". A heavy 2 year show schedule after the EP release made them one of the most exiting acts in Melbourne. 2009, NEW SKINN released their single "Clearview" and selling out shows after that became more regular than not. NEW SKINN released their debut album on June 12th, 2010 at a packed HI-FI Bar Melbourne, with an Australian tour which will end Feb 2011.
They have played with bands such as: The Butterfly Effect, Full Scale, Sydonia, Mammal, Behind Crimson Eyes, RooK, Electric Horse, Calling All Cars, Twelve Foot Ninja, .Hinge, Bushido, Melodyssey, Ink, Jericco, Rincon, Freestate, E37, Tim McMillan band, Bellusira, Sleep Parade & Helm.
"Now this is a band you can mosh to... Awesome!"
NEW SKINN have received radio play with 3 of their songs at a US radio station NMM, and their new released album 'Life & Loss' is out now and has had fans waiting with anticipation. This hard working and talented act has recently sold out venues such as The Espy - Gershwin Room, The Evelyn and The Ding Dong Lounge and headlined the 'Here and Now' Festival. They are sure to be a major influence in the rock landscape for years to come.
"New Skinn have released their single titled Clearview, featuring 3 awesome melodic radio friendly hard rock tracks, and the heavy rock feel of drummer Anthony 'xman' Crossman makes the single worth getting a hold of" |
