SKELETONWITCH: New Seven-Inch Single Now Available

January 10, 2011

The second installment of the new seven-inch trilogy from Ohio metallers SKELETONWITCH is now available. The first installment was released in November and has sold out. Part II is available on green vinyl and features a recently re-recorded version of "The Skullsplitter", a track that originally appeared on the band's self-released debut album, "At One With The Shadows". The B-side, meanwhile, is "No Rest For The Dead", a song recorded with legendary producer Jack Endino (NIRVANA, SOUNDGARDEN, HIGH ON FIRE) during the "Breathing The Fire" sessions (and, coincidentally, also a re-working of a song from "At One With The Shadows"). This version of "No Rest..." was originally used as the iTunes bonus track for "Breathing The Fire" and has never been released in a physical format until now. This is limited to 500 copies and will not be repressed! Order yours now at this location.

SKELETONWITCH is spending the winter writing the follow-up to 2009's "Breathing the Fire", with tentative plans to hit the studio in the spring.

"Breathing the Fire" debuted at No. 151 on The Billboard 200 chart and No. 2 on the Top New Artist Albums (Heatseekers) chart, which lists the best-selling albums by new and developing artists, defined as those who have never appeared in the Top 100 of The Billboard 200. It was SKELETONWITCH's second full-length release for Prosthetic Records, with whom the band recently extended its recording deal.
