Fire Skeleton

The Vilnius-based band &#34;Fire Skeleton&#34; was formed in early 2022 when Joris Dabkus (Drums) and Marius Mažeika (Guitar) began writing instrumental arrangements together with the goal of forming a heavy rock band. Shortly after, Joris Elenbergas (Vocals, Bass) joined, as the band realized their music needed to be more concise and lacked vocals. Coming from diverse backgrounds—Progressive Rock, Alternative Indie, Nu Metal, Jazz, and Post-Hardcore—the band wrote seven songs, five of which were recorded and compiled into their debut EP, <a href="spotify:album:1jqgmiSmooDXCPFV0GOSaC" data-name="The Dog Inside">The Dog Inside</a>, released on April 26, 2023. The record turned out to be very polished, featuring tight, rhythmic, mathematical riffs accompanied by harmonized dual vocal lines, inspired by bands like Tool, Brutus, Toska, Linkin Park, and many more.

The band regularly performs around Lithuania, with their debut concert taking place even before their first official release. In 2024, the band, along with their producer Sam Shepherd, recorded and released three new singles, including a music video for the track <a href="spotify:track:0IDDeULx8pNJIQLeuft7YD" data-name="The Dirt">The Dirt</a>, which attracted more international listeners. Fire Skeleton continues to progress as songwriters and live performers, focusing more on song structure, vocal and guitar hooks, and producing a mix of heaviness and pleasurable listening for their audience.
