Album:

Featuring former members of Stormwitch. Traditional heavy metal as it should be: mighty riffs, a powerful sound and beautiful melodies meet clear, high vocals and end in big, catchy choruses.Skull & Crossbones have announced a worldwide signing with Massacre Records. Their upcoming, debut full-length studio album, entitled “Sungazer”, will be released on September 8th, 2023.The four ex-Stormwitch members Volker Schmietow, Tobi Kipp, Jürgen “Wanschi” Wannenwetsch and Marc Opppold, completed by vocalist Tobi Hübner, pick up where they left off. Skull & Crossbones have dedicated themselves to traditional heavy metal.“While I was a co-founder and the bassist of Stormwitch for many years, it was time for something new. After the successful album ‘Bound to the Witch’, in which I was significantly involved with Volker, Tobi and Marc, we decided to start over. Skull & Crossbones was born”, Jürgen Wannenwetsch reveals. “With our new singer Tobi Hübner came the voice and creativity that really pushed us again. We’re all into melodic old school metal. The result is an album that we at S&C are not the only ones who are 100% convinced of. With Marc Ayerle, who is responsible for the great sound of the record, and the whole team at Massacre Records, we found the right support for Sungazer. We are excited to see where the path will lead us together with our fans”.Tobi Hübner adds: “After the songwriting process and completing our new album ‘Sungazer’, I’m very happy about the deal with Massacre Records and I’m curious what our fans will have to say about our work. We’re definitely very proud of it”!

Bio:

Band founded in September 2019 by the former Stormwitch musicians Wanschi, Volker, Tobi and Marc. The band now goes without singer Andreas Mück and under a new name "Skull & Crossbones" own ways.End of October could be won as a new singer Stefan Fronk.

Album:

German heavy/power metal force SKULL & CROSSBONES unveil their brand-new single and video “Time Thief”—a razor-edged anthem about people who steal our time with their behavior.The track expands the album’s core theme of mortality and meaning, arriving ahead of the band’s upcoming full-length “Time”, due November 14, 2025 via Massacre Records.Driven by militant riffs, towering vocals and a chorus built to roar back from the crowd, “Time Thief” captures the frustration of hours siphoned away by manipulators, energy-vampires and everyday obstructionists—and the cathartic resolve to reclaim what’s left. It stands alongside the record’s deeper reflections on decline (“Labyrinth Of Time”) and renewal (“Eye Of Wisdom”), forming a narrative that cuts across the past, present and future.“Time” marks a strong step forward in both songwriting and production, delivering powerful, melodic, and timeless heavy metal that blends energy with emotion.The follow-up to their debut was produced by SKULL & CROSSBONES together with Marc Ayerle, who also handled mixing and mastering at KlangMAnufaktur. Cover artwork was created by Michael Vetter, while additional keyboard arrangements on “Thunderstorm” and “The Ocean’s Call” were provided by vocalist Tobias Hübner.The record is a journey through powerful riffs, anthemic choruses, and lyrical depth – ranging from the mystical (“Eye Of Wisdom”) and the dramatic (“The Price“) to the thunderous and uplifting (“Thunderstorm”) and even playful, with the pirate-inspired closer (“The Ocean’s Call”).With “Time”, SKULL & CROSSBONES deliver their most mature and focused work to date. Lyrically, the album reflects on the fleeting nature of existence – from stolen hours (“Time Thief”) and human decay (“Labyrinth Of Time”) to rebirth and transcendence (“Eye Of Wisdom”). Musically, the band balance classic heavy/power metal with a modern edge, crafting songs which are as anthemic as they are thought-provoking.This is not just an album – it’s a journey through past, present, and future, bound together by the unrelenting power of heavy metal.
