Sebastian Bach Says He Was ‘Just Getting Started’ With Skid Row, Sees Reunion in the Future
“I can definitely see that happening, considering they play the same songs I play.”
Sebastian Bach recently reflected on his time in Skid Row, explaining he’d only begun his work with the band while also considering the possibility of a reunion.
In an interview with Metal Hammer magazine, Bach pondered his career in Skid Row, recognizing it had been too short:
“For me, doing three albums with Skid Row, I was just getting started. I didn’t think it would be over and done with so quick.”
Asked if it was his opinion that the other members of Skid Row would ever agree to a reunion, Sebastian Bach said:
“I can definitely see that happening considering they play the same songs I play. When I get a substantial royalty check for an album I did with musicians that I haven’t been in the same room with since 1996, I feel like a piece of shit. Because we should be giving something back to the fans that have made this great life possible.”
Lzzy Hale of Halestorm recently spoke up about her upcoming performances in Skid Row. Hale will replace vocalist Erik Grönwall, who has quit the band to focus on his health. In the interview, Hale revealed the influence Skid Row had had on her musicianship:
“I started listening to Skid Row when I was a teenager growing up on the East Coast in central Pennsylvania. They were one of the only bands at that time that truly bridged the gap for my love of ’80s big choruses and riffs, but had the same poignant dirt and grime that was seeping into the cracks of my mind during the ’90s.
“By the early 00s Halestorm was well coming into its own, inspired by these powerful songs that helped me unlock a door within myself as a young musician. I can say without a second thought that if it weren’t for Skid Row in my bones, I would not be the rocker I am today.”
