Line #30 YMMV/Skillet


1	* {{Anvilicious}}:
2	** The song Rise.
3	** [[TakeThat Rippin' Me Off]]
4	* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Quite a bit.
5	** "Monster" is generally considered to be pretty kick-ass.
6	** "Awake and Alive" is also seen as quite awesome.
7	** "Falling Inside The Black".
8	** "Back from the Dead" is a real head-banger.
9	** "Feel Invincible".
10	** "Legendary". The name says it all.
11	* EnsembleDarkHorse: Jen Ledger qualifies as this. After replacing the departing Lori Peters as Skillet's drummer in 2006, the song "Yours to Hold" was modified on the live album ''Comatose Comes Alive'' to give Jen a few lines to sing. After she was given large singing roles on "Hero" and "Awake and Alive" on her first studio album with the band, she became the most easily identifiable member of Skillet aside from John Cooper himself. In 2018, she started LEDGER, her own side project which has become fairly popular in its own right.
12	* EpicRiff: Circus for a Psycho's main riff would fit well in a Franchise/MegaMan game.
13	* GrowingTheBeard: Comatose.
14	* PeripheryDemographic: Skillet have amassed a large fanbase throughout their career. What's particularly impressive is that of these fans, many are not Christian, and of the non-Christian fans, ''many'' are agnostic or atheist outright.
15	** It has been known to happen that Christian concerts will sell out because of this, and there will be a sizable group of concertgoers that ignore everything leading up to Skillet, then leave when they're done.
16	* ShockingMoments: Large portions of a crowd have been known to audibly gasp at the first instance of pyro. The "fifty-foot columns of flame" thing isn't much of an exaggeration, and it can be pretty frightening the first couple of times if you don't know it's coming. Not to mention that the flames are hot and can be felt at a distance when they're really cranked up.
17	* SignatureSong: Either "Hero" or "Monster".
18	* SuspiciouslySimilarSong:
19	** "Monster" is often compared to "Animal I Have Become" by Music/ThreeDaysGrace due to them having similar subject matters of becoming something you hate, and a ''very'' similar tempo, riff, and vocals. Coincidentally, Creator/AtlanticRecords and [=ThreeDaysGraceVEVO=] uploaded the music videos for "Monster" and "Animal I Have Become" to Website/YouTube respectively, on the same day (2nd October, 2009). Bonus points for both songs being featured in two separate ''[[VideoGame/WWEVideoGames SmackDown vs. RAW]]'' titles (2007 for "Animal" and 2010 for "Monster"). Three Days Grace's then-vocalist Adam Gontier would later collaborate with Skillet on the song "Finish Line".
20	** Likewise, "Madness in Me" has also been stated to resemble "Animals I Have Become" in terms of rhythm and lyrics.
21	** Now, compare "It's Not Me, It's You" to "Home."
22	* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: Their song "Monster" has become a Halloween staple, being played at everything from childrens' parties to big Halloween events. The lyrics make it pretty clear that the song's actually about mental health issues, with the "monster" the song's narrator has to "keep hid under lock and key" being a metaphor for something such as bipolar disorder.
