Joining the ranks at Sliptrick Records:
Skies Turn Black (UK) Northern Electronic Metal
Skies Turn Black are an electronic metal band from the North of England, taking influence from guitar driven heavy metal and incorporating features of dance music. Their brand of metal can chop and change genre, to go from being rich in 80’s heavy metal nostalgia with riffs and huge choruses to keytar led synth sections with aggressive drops that still packs that heavy punch.
Since the release of No Place Like Home (“One of the best guitar albums of the year” – Metal Hammer) in 2018, Skies Turn Black have added a keytar to 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.
After an appearance at Bloodstock 2023, the band have played across the UK, performing at sold out shows in Sunderland, Nottingham, Huddersfield and Bristol.
The second full album from Skies Turn Black is ready for release via Sliptrick Records in 2025.
