He will be taking over for the departing Chuck Robinson, who has decided to step down due to his demanding professional career and, therefore, cannot commit to THE SKULL’s upcoming tour dates.<br> The band comments: “Timing was perfect when we met Matt and everything just seemed to fall into place at the right time when we needed a replacement. Matt is very laid back, has a captivating stage presence, and his riffs are electrifying!<br> “If you’ve ever seen him live with PENTAGRAM, you’ll know what we are talking about.”<br> The band continued, “We all understand and support Chuck’s decision. He is welcome on stage with us as a guest guitarist anytime, and we wish our brother well.”<br> THE SKULL is:<br><br> Eric Wagner – vocals<br><br> Jeff “Oly” Olson – drums/keys<br><br> Ron Holzner – bass<br><br> Lothar Keller – guitar<br><br> Matt Goldsborough – guitar<br> <br> 1,416 total views, 0 views today<br> <br>
