Written by Huw Baines
Matt Skiba’s second album with The Sekrets, ‘Kuts’, is set to arrive on June 1.
The Alkaline Trio guitarist, who is also currently playing with Blink 182, will again be joined by AFI bassist Hunter Burgan and former My Chemical Romance sticksman Jarrod Alexander on the record. Discussing the follow up to ‘Babylon’, Skiba said:
"The writing style and entire approach to this new one was a stronger desire to do something fairly different from my other band. We used sounds hugely influenced by early David Bowie stuff and took more chances. I knew that the playing of Hunter and Jarrod would bring entirely new elements to the songs that would help shape them in a huge way and influence ideas that I would never have thought of on my own. They did great stuff for the last record but had even more freedom on this one. It really shaped the way this record sounds."
