About — The artist
Viking Skull are an English heavy metal band originally from Corby, Northamptonshire, England. Formed in 2002, the band currently features vocalist and guitarist Frank Regan, guitarists Dom Wallace and Az Hastings, bassist Larry Connolly and drummer Gordon Morrison. Founded by Roddy Stone, Regan and Waldie with guitarist Darren Smith and drummer Gordon Morrison, the group were initially intended as a semi-comedic support band for Raging Speedhorn, which featured some of Viking Skull's members.
After releasing Chapter One and Born in Hell, Viking Skull came close to breaking up when Smith and Morrison left the band in 2006. Julian "Jules" Cooper and Jess Margera replaced the departed members and released Chapter Two in 2007. With Rich Vose replacing Cooper and the addition of Dom Wallace, Doom, Gloom, Heartache & Whiskey was released in 2008. Regan returned for 2012's Cursed by the Sword, and following a brief hiatus, their self-titled studio release Viking Skull was released in 2016.
