Skillet Continues to Collide with Success

As Skillet gears up to ROCK on the See Spot Rock tour, RAVE REVIEWS continue to pour in for their already critically acclaimed CD, COLLIDE, which includes the #1 hit rock single (10 weeks), "Savior" ...

"Skillet ambitiously tackles a number of weighty subjects such as teen suicide ("Imperfection"), spiritual brokenness ("Fingernails"), and fear ("Collide"). The band should be commended for intelligently addressing these subjects and for wisely avoiding the cliches often employed by well-meaning believers. Collide achieves what few albums seem to accomplish nowadays: It leaves listeners wanting more." David McCreary CCM Magazine

"This is Skillet at the top of its game-a Christian band that could easily slay the mainstream masses if it felt the nudge toward that audience. It's a cool sing that perhaps Skillet may be more ready than we think to take its message to radical new places." Dave Urbanski, Christian Music Planet

"Collide is very inclusive of the journey that got them to this point, a natural progression of the musical path that they have been on from the start." Robin Parrish, CMCentral.com

"For anyone who wrote them off as a campy youth group band, take another look at the new-old Skillet" Relevant

"The first impression of Collide is loud. That's always been true of Skillet, but this time they're really really loud. The album is a fusion of Skillet's melodic sensibilities with hardcore rock and classic metal. Collide demonstrates a new maturity in sound and songwriting. More than ever, they sound like a credible hard rock band.." Russ Breimeier, Christianity Today.com

"The band's latest CD, Collide, is packed with songs that squarely confront today's hardest issues and offer a positive response. Overall, this CD marks a turn to a harder, louder and more assertive style that the band's previous electronic and industrial efforts." Brian Bowers, Stars and Stripes
