Umlando wokudalwa nokwakhiwa kweqembu le-Skillet
Iqembu lavela emhlabeni womculo emuva ngo-1996, eMemphis. Umsuka we-Skillet ungumdlali webhesi nomculi u-John Cooper kanye nomshayi wesigingci u-Ken Stewart.
Bobabili abafana babe nesipiliyoni sokuba sesiteji ngemuva kwabo. Bobabili uCooper noStewart badlale emaqenjini ahlukahlukene e-rock yobuKristu. Indawo yokuqala okwakusetshenzwa kuyo kwakuyiqembu elithi Seraph ne-Urgent Cry.
Maphakathi nawo-1990, ngokweseluleko somfundisi, abafana bahlangana ukuze benze "ukufudumala" kweqembu leFold Zandura. Ngaphezu kwalokho, bakhiphe amademo amaningana ahlangene.
Kamuva, uTrey McLarkin wajoyina uJohn noKen njengabashayi besigubhu. Kwadlula cishe inyanga, futhi iFore Front Records yaba nesithakazelo kubaculi. Abanikazi bamalebula banikeze abafana ukuthi basayine inkontileka enenzuzo.
Akuzange kuthathe isikhathi eside ukucabanga ngegama leqembu elisha. Igama elithi Skillet lisho "i-pan yokuthosa" ekuhumusheni. Umqondo wokubiza leli qembu ngaleyo ndlela wasikiselwa umfundisi ofanayo owaluleka uKen noJohn ukuba bahlangane.
Leli yigama elingokomfanekiso, okunjengokungathi, elibonisa ukuhlanganiswa kwezitayela ezihlukahlukene zomculo. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, abaculi beza ne-logo yenkampani, esekhona kuyo yonke imikhiqizo yokukhangisa nama-discs eqembu.
Ngemva kokukhishwa kwe-albhamu yokuqala, elinye ilungu lajoyina iqembu. Umculi ohamba phambili waleli qembu wathathelwa indawo unkosikazi kaCooper othandekayo, uCorey, owayedlala isiginci esiholayo kanye ne-synthesizer.
Intombazane yahlala eqenjini le-Skillet ngokuqhubekayo. Ngemuva kwalo mcimbi, uStewart walishiya unomphela iqembu. UJohn waba umholi we-Skillet.
Ekuqaleni kwawo-2000, iqembu laphinde lashintsha. Ibhendi yamukele isigubhu u-Laurie Peters nomshayi wesigingci uKevin Haland ezinhlwini zabo.

Imibhalo yobuKristu yayihambisana nomculo we-grunge. Naphezu kweqiniso lokuthi abalandeli bawamukele ngemfudumalo umsebenzi wabasanda kuhlanganyela, azikho izingoma eziseqoqweni ezifinyelele amashadi.
Izingoma zomculo zamarekhodi okuqala zingeze "peni" likaStewart noCooper. IBhayibheli laba umthombo wokuphefumlelwa.
Kwenye yezingxoxo zabo zakuqala, laba baculi bathi bafuna uNkulunkulu afinyelele abantu ngezingoma zabo. Iziqeshana zevidiyo zengoma ethi I Can nethi Gasoline zidinga ukunakwa kakhulu. Abaculi babonakale bengungwe ngabantu abathandazayo.

Wahlela nokuyofunda ekolishi. Kusukela ngaleso sikhathi kuqhubeke, u-Cooper waba umbhali oyinhloko wezingoma zomculo zeqembu. Indawo kaKen ithathwe ngumshayi wesigingci uKevin Haland.
Ekuqaleni kwawo-2000, i-discography yeqembu yaphinde yagcwaliswa nge-albhamu yesithathu yesitudiyo ethi Invincible. Ngokuphuma kwale albhamu, isitayela sokwethula izingoma sishintshile.
Ikhwalithi ye-post-industrial ezingomeni isigqame kakhulu futhi yesimanje. Iqoqo liqukethe izici zomculo we-techno nomculo we-elekthronikhi.
Uhlobo lwe-Invincible lwathandwa abathandi bomculo nabagxeki bomculo. I-albhamu ilethe iqembu ezingeni elisha lokuduma kanye nokusebenza kahle kochwepheshe.
