The follow-up to 2009&#8217;s &#8220;Breathing The Fire&#8221; was recorded at a Los Angeles studio with producer Matt Hyde (SLAYER, MACHINE HEAD, KREATOR). The effort will include the track &#8220;The Infernal Resurrection&#8221;, the demo version of which appears as the B-side on the final seven-inch of a limited-edition vinyl trilogy. This marks SKELETONWITCH&#8217;s first recording with the group&#8217;s new drummer, former DEMIRICOUS skin-pounder Dustin Boltjes.<\/p>\n<p>SKELETONWITCH will take part in a fall North American tour alongside ARCH ENEMY, DEVILDRIVER and CHTHONIC, and has just confirmed &#8220;off-date&#8221; shows along with DEVILDRIVER. The band will play several Midwestern shows next week, before heading to Europe for a run of dates which include performances at several of the continent&#8217;s biggest metal festivals.<br \/>\nSKELETONWITCH&#8217;s latest album, &#8220;Breathing the Fire&#8221; (2009), 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&#8217;s second full-length release for Prosthetic Records, with whom the band recently extended its recording deal.<\/p>\n<p>by Natalie Perez<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/skeletonwitch.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/skeletonwitch.jpg\" alt=\"Skeletonwitch\" title=\"Skeletonwitch\/09\" width=\"500\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-61404\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/skeletonwitch.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/skeletonwitch-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Athens, Ohio&#8217;s SKELETONWITCH will release its new album, &#8220;Forever Abomination&#8221;, on October 11 via Prosthetic Records.
