Whiskey drenched rock straight from Sabbath Country, England. The only band to ever receive an 11 out of 10 review from metal hammer magazine.

notes

If you took equal parts Whiskey, Motorhead, Sabbath, Maiden, mixed in a little WASP, then washed it down with some AC/DC you would have Viking Skull. Members of fellow british band, Raging Speedhorn formed Viking Skull in 2002 and the following year they released their first record "Chapter One". After top-notch press reviews they landed a spot on the Download Festival and the Metal Hammer Golden Gods Awards. In 2005 their second effort "Born in Hell" was released through the Grand Recordings label and the band was later invited to join Alice Cooper and Twisted Sister on tour but later cancelled because they were tired of dealing with "silly old men with egos". After sharing the stage in 2006 with such acts as CKY, Clutch and HIM - Roddy and Waldie parted ways with Gordon and Darren following an argument after a show in Amsterdam (a bottle of Absinthe didnt help matters much obviously.) Several months later, Roddy got Jules Cooper and Jess Margera to replace them, grabbed Waldie, and traveled to America to begin recording "Chapter Two" in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Chapter Two also features guest appearances from Reverend Jim of Fireball Ministry, the Brandywine Eel of Gnarkill, Unkle Matt & the Shitbirdz, and Chad I Ginsburg of CKY. As a CDBaby exclusive, every order placed in 2007 will feature a free Blackened Sunrise EP with 3 extra songs and a remix, as well as the Blackened Sunrise video directed by Bam Margera.

    This album rocks. If you are tired of the norm radio rock check these guys out.

  • Finally, old school metal that IS Worthy!
    author: Kristian Biggs

    Amazing. That's exactly what this album was and is. The only way to describe the sound is Motorhead meets CKY. And I've been a CKY fan for about 8 years now, so I thought it was awesome as fuck that Jess is the drummer and Chad made an appearance (not to mention mixed the album.). all in all, I recommend this album to ANYONE who loves old school rock/metal or newer stuff. BUY IT! You will NOT reget it!

  • Awesome Album!!

    author: Nile Plumb

    My 3rd Dose Of Viking Skull I'm still addicted! See this band live! They're amazingly powerful and full of heavy metal energy And buy their merch/Cd's to support them, I've spoken and hung around with them various times and they're a great bunch of guys and very friendly, usually you can catch them hanging around the public bar etc before they have to go on stage to play As for this album, it's very very good, and definitely deserves more than 5 stars, MetalHammer gave Viking Skull 11 stars which has never been done ever before so good stuff!

    author: steve young

    I have been waiting for this new release from the Skull for what seems a decade, and has the wait been worth while? you bet your rockin life it has this is classic rock n roll in the vain of Sabbath, AC/DC, Motorhead, Dio and a multitude of others! for anyone who have not seen these boys live (i have numerous times) you are seriously missing out! buy this record and if you can get Chapter One and Born In Hell them as well - you wont regret it and will be converted, these guys deserve the fame coming their way! buy, listen and rock n roll forever Steve Young, Hull, U.K.

  • Splendid Noise

    Fucking top notch, wasn't as instantly in love with this one as I was with the last two but after a few listens it had really grown on me. Can't wait to catch this band on tour (again).

  • Badass
    author: Will Roberts

    Really good album. I greatly enjoy it. And the packaging is great, too.

  • Lo mejor del 2007??? Best of 2007???
    author: V.Mendoza

    Creo que hasta el momento lo mejor que escuche en lo que va del año en lo que a heavy metal se refiere, si el Chapter One ya era muy bueno, este segundo album es INCREIBLE, una buena combinacion de AC/CD y BLACK SABBATH, lo unico es que me dejo con las ganas de escuchar mas ya que el disco es un poco corto, pero por suerte esta el EP para aplicarte una dosis mas de Viking Skull, no dudes en comprarlo ademas la presentacion es de lujo. If you want to mix AC/DC and Black Sabbath then you must buy this cd, great example that metal will never die!!!

  • HELL yeah!!!
    author: David

    I got my CD in TWO DAYS and it fucking ROCKS!!! I'm so tired of whiney rock, Viking Skull is a kick-ass breath of fresh air!

  • Their best yet!
    author: Steve from Broadcast Rock

    I have known Roddy for some time now, Viking Skull is some of the best bunch of people in the industry. I am SOOO glad Waldi and Roddy kept at it by adding Jules and Jess Viking Skull is really coming full circle and putting out some serious music. This new album was the first time I heard Julian Cooper play and he is a madman on guitar. Cheers on the new album Whiskey will be drank in celebration!!!!!!

  • Brilliant
