Skillet

The founder of the Skillet group is John Cooper. Since childhood, he was obsessed with Christianity, accepting his teachings as the only true one, this is what was reflected in the near future in the work of his group. In his early years, he began to master the guitar, trying to write the first songs. It is worth considering in detail his biography, since if it were not for John Cooper, the Skillet group did not exist.

Participating in the first team, he took over at the age of 15. Then he began to play in a group founded at the church parish. The decisive role was played by the local priest, who invited him to form his own band and record the first demo. This is how the Skillet group came together. Not long before that, John had an idol - Kurt Cobain (Nirvana), in the assembled line-up he was the youngest participants, but this fact did not bother him at all.

Naturally, at first, the main bias went to the style of Grunge and Post Industrial. After some time, the Ardent records label became interested in the new team, which later offered to record the album at the studio. It becomes an ordinary ordinary team, none of the participants wanted to, so it was decided to take the benchmark for the mainstream. Since grunge as a style began to die out gradually, the guys began to look for new alternative options. At that time, all the participants had different musical tastes, so the album turned out to be very diverse, but when recording the second album, all the participants decided exactly in which direction they should work together.

After that, it was decided to change the label, but since all their music was exclusively Christian themes. The search for a new studio to release their records dragged on for a long time, in the end, the group returned to their original label.
