“The
lyrics are a call to make your life matter,” Skillet’s lead singer and front man
John Cooper goes on. “You’re realizing you have a chance for your life to count
every day. In a sense, we’re all destined to be forgotten, so live the way you
want and don’t turn your back on who you are. I drew the sentiment from my own
career. We’ve always put our heads down and pushed forward when confronted with
adversity.”
About Skillet:
One of the best-selling rock bands of the 21st century, two-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated multiplatinum Wisconsin quartet Skillet—John Cooper [lead vocals/bass], Korey Cooper [guitar/keys], Jen Ledger [drums/vocals], and Seth Morrison [lead guitar]—write the soundtrack to triumph. An undying spirit humbly asserted and affirmed the band as one of this generation’s most successful rock acts. However, as all classic underdog stories do, it happened quietly under the radar. By 2019, they not only garnered a pair of GRAMMY® Award nods and sold over 12 million albums worldwide, but they also took home a Billboard Music Award for the double-platinum Awake.

“Monster” remains “one of the most-streamed rock songs of all-time” with 285

200. Going #1 on Rock Radio, the lead single “Feel Invincible” cracked 150
million global audio streams and went platinum.
Meanwhile, the
gold-certified Unleashed became their fourth consecutive album to receive either
a gold, platinum, or double-platinum. To date, nine original tunes earned RIAA
recognition in tandem with high-profile syncs by everyone from WWE and Marvel to
ESPN and NFL. Between selling out arenas on four continents, the group performed
on CONAN and graced the pages of USA Today and New York Times, to name a few.
In
2018 alone, the band clocked 1 billion streams. This momentum continues on their
2019 tenth full-length, Victorious. With the bulk produced by Korey and John, it
lives up to its name for Skillet a s their most triumphant body of work
yet.
