Voodoo Glow Skulls

Deep within the center of California’s Inland Empire, the Hispanic-tinged ska-punk music group Voodoo Shine Skulls formed in the past due ’80s. Originally a hardcore group, the quartet was made up of the brothers Casillas (Frank on vocals, Eddie on acoustic guitar, Jorge on bass) plus drummer Jerry O’Neill. After many years of playing inside a garage area, the band made a decision to increase both its lineup (not forgetting its audio) having a horn section — saxophone participant Joey Hernandez, trumpeter Joe McNally, and trombone participant Brodie Johnson. By the first ’90s, Voodoo Shine Skulls were probably one of the most interesting ska-punk rings on the Western Coastline. After debuting with two 7″ singles, the music group released the LP WHO’S? THAT IS? in 1993 on Dr. Unusual Information. They toured America many times (only and with the Mighty Mighty Bosstones) and authorized to Epitaph Information in 1995. Their second recording, 1995’s Firme, was obtainable in both Spanish- and English-language variations, a distinctive feature that recognized the band from your growing amount of regional ska-punk organizations. Baile de los Locos adopted two years later on, and The Music group Geek Mafia made an appearance in 1998. After taking pleasure in an area on the primary stage at Warped Tour, Voodoo Shine Skulls came back in 1999 with Exitos al Cabron. Symbolic was released a year later on. The music group jumped from regional label Epitaph towards the Chicago-based Victory Information for 2002’s Steady as She Moves, however the album’s murky creation (executed from the bandmates themselves) drew criticism from critics and followers as well. Adicción, Tradición, Revolución adopted in Oct 2004; although also self-produced, the album’s sharp audio and skacore stylings had been seen as a refreshing go back to form. Making use of their early lineup still set up (apart from Joe McNally, who remaining the group to go after a day work in 1999), Voodoo Shine Skulls released their eighth recording, Southern California Road Music, in Sept 2007.
