British metallers Skies Turn Black have been on the road with fellow British metallers Andromedous, and in conjunction with the tour, released their brand-new single Angel on April 10th.
Speaking about Angel, the band have said: “It’s the dance tune that makes you want to headbang and dance at the same time. Everything the album wants to say is right there in this one song.”
Skies Turn Black have been at it since 2016 and gained attention with their 2018 release No Place Like Home, with Metal Hammer called it “One of the best guitar albums of the year”. This led them to play their first post-pandemic festival at Bloodstock in 2023 to an overflowing crowd at the Jägermeister Stage.
Since the release of No Place Like Home, Skies Turn Black have added a keytar to their line-up, diversifying their sound to explore what genre bending electronics can add to the heavy metal at the core of the band. The result has taken the heaviness of dance music such as dubstep, to create an impactful twist to your run of the mill metal.
Since their appearance at Bloodstock 2023, the band have played across the UK, performing at sold out shows in Sunderland, Nottingham, Huddersfield and Bristol.
The project has one full album release in No Place Like Home (2018), a self-titled EP (2016), and a number of standalone single releases: The Skies Are Falling Down, Sweet, Sweet Solitude and Playing With Fire. Their second full album will be released through Sliptrick Records in 2025.
