Cranking out music since 1996, Skillet has been picking up major momentum in both the Christian and general music market thanks to their successful 2003 album Collide. And now the band is posed for even greater exposure and success with their critically-acclaimed new release, Comatose. Founders include John (vocals, bass) and Korey Cooper (keyboards, vocals).

Fans of the rock band Skillet are called Panheads.

Beautiful passions are truly an art form; there newest album is one of those defining releases.  Skillet is really on the top of their game with this surprisingly passionate, explosive, and guitar driven rock album.  Comatose mentions a lot about life and pain, with a resounding message of faith and hope.  This release is a mainstream one that still holds true to what Skillet believes.

It is a blend between Modern Rock, Hard Rock, Rock, and samplings of violins, pianos, and electronics. The standout song(s) could easily be all of them.

It is a Rock record for Skillet that just breathes "hits." John's vocals speak of a passion of heartfelt lyrical content. This album shall make an impact, hopefully it will be profound. - Len Nash of Awaken Magazine.
