FORE Share Sophomore Album “Skin”

In the summer of 2020, the leaders of the world got together and decided that the only hope for humanity would be the formation of a new punk rock band…featuring extreme metal musicians! And thus, FORE was born. Their debut album, Hombres, was released that August, with a brace of singles released the following year and today, the band have released their sophomore album, Skin. The group, which is now a power-trio, features Brian “The Canadian Glenn Hughes” Stephenson (Umbilicus) on vocals and now handling bass duties, Jeramie Kling (Inhuman Condition / Venom Inc) on drums, and Taylor Nordberg (Inhuman Condition / Deicide) on guitar. 

Skin strikes its listener from first glance. Once your eyes set on the gorgeous artwork done by Abbie “Stabby” Rial (and yes, it absolutely may or may not be a spoof of a superb Swedish grind album…), you will be sucked into the tractor-beam of blazing guitars, acrobatic bass, stampeding drums, and the masterful blanket of harmonious vocal arrangements.  Clocking in at 29 minutes, Skin offers up a refreshing slab of melody-fueled hardcore punk.
