Biography
Athens OH, United States (2003 – present)
Skeletonwitch released their first album, At One with the Shadows, on August 11, 2004 with Shredded Records.
The band then released a quick fiery demo in 2004 and then released an EP Worship the Witch in 2005, both of which were self-released due to the failed Shredded Records. This lead to a lot of interest with fan and labels, with their new matured style.
After being signed to Prosthetic, Skeletonwitch released Beyond The Permafrost on October 2, 2007.
Skeletonwitch was featured as one of four opening acts for Danzig’s 2008 Blackest of the Black tour.
On October 13, 2009, Skeletonwitch released their third studio album, Breathing The Fire, which debuted at #151 on the Billboard 200 charts. Skeletonwitch’s song “
Soul Thrashing Black Sorcery” was featured on the soundtrack of the video game Brütal Legend. The song “Crushed Beyond Dust” became featured on the Rock Band network on February 28, 2010. Skeletonwitch was featured on all of the dates of Ozzfest 2010.

I'm not too familiar with this genre, and this is only my first time listening to Skeletonwitch. I'm sure they aren't the best band in blackened thrash, but if anything this band manages to stay fun. That's sometimes all I listen for, anyway, if anyone has any blackened thrash recs that are "better' than this, feel free to shoutbox them to me. I'm always up for more thrash.

Well the black thrash tag page disagrees with you.

pleanis
in my opinion, skeletonwitch plays "blackened thrash" way better than nearly all of the other bands using the tag.

vvv Have to agree all of their releases are amazing but I don't think any of them top Breathing the Fire.

Love these guys, one of the most consistent bands in the game. Breathing the fire doesnt get enough love. That might be their best album.
