Reformed Bay Area bash ‘n thrash band Skinlab has announced their first live dates of 2018, with the Brothers In Blood Tour.

It sees the heavy hitters supported by a duo of equally fantastic acts, Pissing Razors and Shattered Sun. The trio’s short southwestern run will begin on January 25th in San Diego, California, and wrap on February 3rd in Harlingen, Texas (full dates below).

Formed in 1994, Skinlab has released four studio albums: 1997’s ‘Bound, Gagged And Blindfolded’, 1999’s ‘Disembody: The New Flesh’, 2002’s ‘ReVolting Room’, and 2009’s ‘The Scars Between Us’. In 2017, the reformed, re-energized band celebrated the 20th anniversary of their début album with a string of west coast dates, followed by a summer tour with Product Of Hate and IKILLYA.

In October, the band released their first single in nearly eight years, “End Of Silence”. Work continues on the fifth studio album, slated for release sometime in 2018.
