WE LOVED YOU IN LIFE,
HATE YOU IN DEATH
HOW COULD
YOU LEAVE ME HERE ?
The Skull
is the
second
studio album
by the American
Doom Metal band
released by
Combat and
Metal Blade Records
on
April 15, 1985.
Trouble
gained
critical recognition
for
The Skull
and it was followed
by a successful tour.
The album reflected
singer
Eric Wagner's
struggles with
substance abuse,
however,
as well as
growing turmoil
within the group.
This led to the departure
of bassist
Sean McAllister
in 1986;
he was replaced by
Ron Holzner
during that year,
who would remain
with the band
until their
2002 reunion.
In early 1986,
shortly after
The Skull
tour began,
drummer
Jeff Olson
would also leave
to pursue
higher education
and the band
regrouped
with a new lineup
later that year.
Olson would play
the Hammond organ
on
Trouble's
third studio album,
Run to the Light,
in 1987
and keyboards
on their
1990 self-titled album,
eventually fully
reuniting with the band
in 1993.
Olson played on
Trouble's
sixth and seventh
studio albums,
Plastic Green Head
and
Simple Mind Condition,
released in 1995
and 2007,
respectively,
before leaving
the band again
in 2008.
