Biography

The Skatenigs rose at the beginning of the 90's from the midst of Austin, Texas hardcore scene by way of a conceptual idea entertained by Al Jourgensen of Ministry. They were a band of punk, metal and industrial music, initially created to fill the support slot for Ministry. The original line-up featured Phil Owen on vocals, Billy Jackson and Chris Chambers sharing guitar duties, Lance Von Moulder playing bass, and Keith Daily on drums. The lead singer Phil Owens (a.k.a. Phildo) sang on the now legendary Revolting Cocks' "Beers, Steers and Queers" and Chris Chambers worked on remixed version of the same track. The band supported the Revolting Cocks on their tour and gained huge success with their first single; "Chemical Imbalance" (1991.), which also featured a spoken word by Lorri Jackson. Shortly after, the "Loudspeaker" (1992.) single was released. In the same year the Skatenigs recorded their first album "Stupid People Shouldn't Breed".
