Band of Skulls are a UK rock outfit from Southampton that emerged in the early 2000s, blending heavy guitar-driven rock with psychedelic and blues influences. Founded by Russell Marsden (vocals/guitar), Emma Richardson (vocals/bass), and Matt Hayward (drums), the trio crafted a distinctive sound characterized by fuzzy, distortion-laden riffs and dual vocal harmonies that set them apart in the contemporary rock landscape.
Across five studio albums, Band of Skulls established themselves as purveyors of anthemic, groove-oriented rock with electronic undertones that appeal to alternative and indie audiences. Their work spans from early releases through *Love Is All You Love* (2019), showcasing their evolution as songwriters and producers. Following lineup changes in recent years, Marsden continues the project as a solo endeavor, maintaining the band's legacy of heavy, melodic rock.
