Skeletonwitch

The Toledo City Paper depends on readers like you! Become a friend today. See membership options

Face-melting death metal isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you think of the Athens, Ohio music scene, but that's where the internationally-touring cult heroes Skeletonwitch got their start in 2003. Really, they're everything you want in a heavy band —  the angry energy, the thunderous rhythm section and those screeching lead axes that remain the cornerstone of the genre. So, leave the dubstep to the Girl Scouts and Germans and get yourself some Ohio-brewed, bass-driven shouts at the devil that'll send shivers down your spine. Frankie’s Inner City, 308 Main St. 419-693-5300. www.frankiesinnercity.com
