TERRE HAUTE, Ind.— Skillet is set to perform at The Mill July 12th, 2025, as part of The Hoosier Lottery Concert Series. Tickets go on sale May 30th at 10am, and are available at TheMillTerreHaute.com.
After an incredible 20 years on Atlantic Records, Skillet have built this new vision entirely by hand, intentionally opting to go independent at the end of their last contract and developing solid indie team. Bolstered and galvanized by the support of a fervent global base, they took advantage of this newfound freedom, writing and recording the album at their own pace on the road and at home as well as in studios across Milwaukee, Canada, and Nashville. The group also tapped the talents of longtime collaborators and producers Brian Howes and Seth Mosely, as well as band member Korey Cooper with YOUTHYEAR/CarloColasacco bringing these ten tracks to life naturally. “We made records on the same label for 20 years, and it was a great experience,” says John. “Since this was the first independent record, it put some pep in my step, so to speak,” he laughs. “We did exactly what we wanted to do. If I was on the road and felt inspired to write, I just did. In the past, we’d make a bunch of ideas and whittle everything down for the album. This time, we only wrote and recorded ten tracks, but it was all we needed.”
Revolution has only extended Skillet’s formidable legacy. As of 2024, the band have received two GRAMMY®Award nominations, picked up a Billboard Music Award, and landed three albums in the Top 5 of the Billboard200. Selling over 22 million units worldwide, they have notched multiplatinum, platinum, or gold RIAA certifications for a total of 12 singles and four full-length albums. Not to mention, they have regularly attracted 10 million monthly listeners on Spotify, boasting “one of the most-streamed rock songs of all-time” with the 5x-platinum “Monster.” Their presence has impressively surged throughout popular culture with syncs by WWE, Marvel, ESPN, and NFL in addition to coverage from USA Today, The New York Times, and more. As a live force of nature, they have touched down on four continents and in 26 countries, packing arenas everywhere from the Middle East to Russia. Not to mention, Skillet expanded their world with the graphic novel series EDEN. The first installment stood out as Z2 Comics’ best-selling book of all-time. Even with all of this history in the rearview, Revolution feels like a new beginning for Skillet.“ I think that the album is poignant, but it’s also very confident and inclusive as well. It’s a record saying, ‘We have to be willing to stand up for what we believe in—even if it might be unpopular in some circles, but hey, maybe we could have a revolution of love, you know, a revolution of understanding, of tolerance towards people that we don’t agree with and come back to some human dignity and respecting people’s rights and where they’re coming from. And so it’s kind of speaking to the division and the polarization that is happening as well, which I think is a really good message and what the whole ‘revolution’ thing is all about. We allude to it on the record cover where there’s a Skillet flag, and in the corner it lists Corinthians, 13:13, a verse that says, “Hold onto these things: faith, hope, love. But the greatest is love.”
