Skid Row Is Back with United World Rebellion – Chapter One

Skid 1

The  deliciously raunchy New Jersey hard rock legends have returned with their first new music in seven years. Their new EP, entitled United World Rebellion – Chapter One, is Skid Row coming out swinging.  The reincarnated band ~ featuring Snake Sabo (guitars), Rachel Bolan (bass), Scotti Hill (guitars), Johnny Solinger (vocals) and Rob Hammersmith (drums) ~ will release the new EP on April 16, 2013 via MRI. United World Rebellion – Chapter One is the first in a series of EPs that the band plans to unleash on their fans ~ old and new ~ in the near future.

Skid Row’s rebellious tunes ~ delivered by the even more rebellious Sebastian Bach ~ hit the big time in the late 1980s. They were pretty much unstoppable, nasty and hard enough for metal fans but with a set-list that included tracks for the masses.  Unfortunately, after nearly a decade of  top ten singles, gold and multi-platinum sales, No. 1 Billboard charting tracks and more, the band split in 1996. In 2000, to the delight of fans everywhere, Skid Row reformed and returned to the stage to open for Kiss. They then released two new albums ~ 2003’s ThickSkin and 2006’s Revolutions Per Minute ~ with new singer Johnny Solinger out front. Seven years later, with Solinger no longer “the new guy,” the band is back again and ready to take over in the new age of heavy metal.


Skid Row is still for, from, and about youth gone wild,  and their musical spark’s still burning gasoline. The rebellion ~ the United World Rebellion ~ continues.
