About Me

SkiN OF TEARS exists since October 1991. In this early years as a "Four Guy Band" but now as a "Power Trio" on the road playing melodic Punk-Rock and Hardcore with almost every Style wich could be involved (Reggae, Ska, Rumba, Polka, Grunge...) in the Music. Fresh, tasty and every Song is absolutely SOT.
In 1995 SkiN OF TEARS released their first Single. It was a Split-Single with Gigantor, followed by the MCD "Blinded" and the Longplayer "Shit happens" also in 95, wich was sold over 6.000 times.
1996 they did the Tour Support for PROPAGHANDI on their European-Tour and played about 250 Concerts.
In 1997 they quit their contract with the Record Label and recorded the "Up the Cups" CD wich was released on their own Record Label "Rubble the Cat Records" in 1999.
Speed, Power and new Ideas with a fat sound let the listener feel how much fun the three guys have, making their music.
The years 1999 / 2000 were "Live Years" for Skin of Tears. They played as much as they can. With gigs in Germany (for sure) Belgium, Switzerland, England, Netherlands, Austria and Gigs with Bands like All, Bad Religion, Strunge out, Lagwagon, No use for a name, H-BlockX, Rancid, Shelter, etc. and Gigs on big Open Air Festivals like Bizarre, Rock am See, GroezRock, Ignore, Sinnlos, etc..
2001 SoT released their Album "Out of Line" in a colaboration between Rubble the Cat- and Vitaminepillen - Records. This record includes 12 Songs from Punk, Ska and Pop to Hardcore to ..ROCK ! With the best sound SoT ever had on a Record.

The rest of the year they spend their time with touring through France, Spain, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland and Germany again to complete the 500 Concert-Mark.
