Skatenigs, the long-running electro-thrashcore outfit led by singer Phil \u201cPhildo\u201d Owen, return to the musical stage with\u00a0What Could Go Wrong?<\/em>, a collection of all-new recordings, set for release on October 29.

Featuring the current core Skatenigs crew of Owen, Chris Ahrens and Adam Lamar on guitars, and live drummer\/studio bassist Myke Bingham (Owen: \u201cHe\u2019s a one-man rhythm section!\u201d), the 12-track physical CD release will be followed by its digital streaming counterpart via Cleopatra Records on Halloween.

Skatenigs was begun by Owen in Los Angeles in 1989, though it\u2019s been Austin-based since the early \u201890s. Running until 1995, with a brief reunion for a handful of shows in 2011, Skatenigs were reactivated in 2016 for their self-released\u00a0Adult Entertainment For Kids<\/em>, with all current members augmented by Big Boys\/Poison 13\/Junkyard legend Chris Gates.\u00a0What Could Go Wrong?<\/em>\u00a0basically comprises what Skatenigs did during COVID-19 lockdown.

All 12 tracks were written and recorded in fits and starts, between dayjob engagements and other responsibilities. Among the highlights: A steroid-enhanced, turbo-charged, 30th anniversary \u201cLife, Liberty and the Pursuit Of Happiness\u201d remake\/remix of \u201cBeers, Steers and Queers,\u201d the Revolting Cocks hit featuring Owen\u2019s vocals. The new version of \u201cBSAQ\u201d is essentially the original version, with new guitar work and other instrumental contributions from Skatenigs, plus some choice samples from Joe Exotic. \u201cIt\u2019s gonna get real redneck,\u201d promises Owen.
