VIKING SKULL Mainman Seeks New Members

September 25, 2006

Darren Smith (guitar) and Gordon Morrison (drums) have left Corby, U.K.-based old-school metallers VIKING SKULL and will be focusing their attention on RAGING SPEEDHORN. Meanwhile, VIKING SKULL vocalist/guitarist Roddy Stone has launched a search for a new drummer and bass player. Interested parties should be between 20 and 30 years old, "must be shit-hot at their profession but most importanly, [must] like BLACK SABBATH. Milton Keynes/Northampton area prefered." Roddy can be contacted via www.myspace.com/roddystone or [email protected].

VIKING SKULL earlier in the year signed a deal with 456 Entertainment/Universal to release their debut album, "Born in Hell", in the U.S. Upon its U.K. release last October, "Born in Hell" received rave reviews from the U.K. metal press, with Metal Hammer's 9/10 review stating that the band were "like MOTÖRHEAD on testosterone supplements." A longtime supporter of the band, 456 Entertainment's Bam Margera (MTV's "Jackass", "Viva La Bam") said, "We're stoked to have VIKING SKULL on board. They are the hottest rock 'n' roll band to come out of the U.K. since BLACK SABBATH." Carson Daly, who co-founded 456 Entertainment, added, "Your favorite rock and roll band now sucks — VIKING SKULL will out-distort, out-solo, and out-rock all others."
