SKILLET’s “REBIRTHING” ROCKS! NASHVILLE, TN….(8.24.06)……With just over a month to go before Grammy-nominated rockers Skillet release their 7th studio recording COMATOSE (Lava/Atlantic/Ardent/SRE), the band’s first single at Christian Rock radio is heating up, making the highest debut this week at No. 17 on R&R’s Christian rock chart and causing their fan message boards to go crazy. Since putting a clip of “Rebirthing” on their MySpace (myspace.com/skilletmusic) page just over two weeks ago, the single as received over 100,000 plays. On top of that, the song is being played non-stop at their official website (skillet.com) and their fan site (panheads.org).
Here’s just a taste of what their fans and radio programmers are saying:
“’Rebirthing’ has not only been the number one requested song by our listeners, but by the staff here at RadioU! October 3 and the release of Comatose can not come quick enough. We LOVE SKILLET! - Nikki Cantu / RadioU
“When the hook of ‘Rebirthing’ came blasting through my stereo speakers I almost fell over! It’s intense, melodic and atmospheric. I can’t get enough of it!! Whenever I spin this song I’m sent into spastic fits of air guitar bliss! Add this song and you will be too, if not check your pulse, you might be Comatose.” - Bill Moore / Sound Of Light
FAN comments: “Amazing. Simply Amazing.” “Once again Skillet has done it.” “This is it! This is a song you search for…..I got one million goose bumps the first time I heard it!” “Can't wait for the new album, guys! Love your music, always have. I love how you can rock out harder than anyone else!” “Man there are no words to describe the sound of this song. Hey can you guys give an early copy, please please please. Its been so long since you last album came out. But hey it sounds awesome so far.” “What an incredible sound! Such amazing lyrics!! You guys really know how to make hard yet moving and intelligent rock!” “I downloaded the single from iTunes yesterday--I'm on my 27th listen to it. Yes, 27th. In a word, I LOVE it.” “I finally got this song from itunes. It's awesome! I listened to it about 5 times in a row.”
Hot on the heels of 2003’s best-seller Collide, which launched SKILLET into the mainstream with the hit single “Savior,” touring with Three Days Grace, Salvia, Shinedown, and 12 Stones, plus a nomination at the 47th Annual Grammy Awards, COMATOSE hits stores on October 3rd, 2006. Look for Skillet this fall on the Nov/Dec cover of HM, in the October and November issues of CCM, as part of the launch of myccm.org, in the November/December issue of Christian Music Planet, and throughout the fall in Christian Retailing, Worship Leader, ChristianMusicToday.com, ChristRock.com, Jesusfreakhideout.com, Infuzemag.com, Musicfaith.com, Upshotmagazine.com, ChristianMusicReview.com and much more.
