Skin And Bonz - Skin And Bonz

Formed in 1991 in Redwood City, California, Skin and Bonz exploded onto the Bay Area hard rock scene with a ferocity few bands could match. Known for their high-octane live shows and razor-sharp execution, they quickly earned a reputation as the must-see band, turning every performance into a full-blown event. At a time when grunge dominated the musical landscape, Skin and Bonz refused to follow trends, instead doubling down on powerful, no-holds-barred rock fueled by discipline, attitude, and raw intensity.  

Musically, Skin and Bonz were a force of nature. They crafted a sound that combined hard rock’s driving power with unexpected melody, creating a soundscape that was both chaotic and tightly controlled. One reviewer described them as a cross between the raw, anarchic energy of punk of the Sex Pistols, the funk-driven fire of the Chili Peppers, and the virtuosic, arena-ready guitar of Van Halen all in one explosive package. For anyone who saw the band live or experienced one of their performances, it’s a spot-on assessment.
