[@frontrowliveent]

I can't pick a favorite song off Skillet's new album 'Victorious,' can you? - Rob

[@Ravenhunter65]

frontrowliveent I love them all, but my favorite ...right now is You Ain’t Ready! I’m seeing them live for the first time in Oct. I can’t wait!!!

This is a great interview. I just love John. He’s so laid back and cool! Much respect for his comments on Jen Ledger. I give mad props to her as a drummer and sister in Christ! I love the relationship between Jen and Korey! They lift each other up and that’s very inspiring.

This was a great interview! I love the interviewer as well. A lot of them seem to act big in front of these musicians, but this guy is chill and respectful.

[@countryboy7933]

Love skillet! Victorious is🔥🔥🔥 never going back is my favorite.

[@samywasonlineonce]

I just searched for skillet interviews and thought this was an old one until I clicked :D it's new! I absolutely love their songs! but I just cannot get over "Never going back" and "Anchor"

[@bradleyschafer964]

Jen and Nick Menza (RIP) are my two favorite drummers, they play with so much emotion and raw power

[@jacob5014]

i think Joey Jordison is better than both of them

[@alecwesterholm9122]

I look up to Jen and she has so much talent and jen is my absolute favorite drummer and singer, she is what makes skillet who they are and stuff like that

I was with you guys since 98. Up here in MN at Sonshine Baby. Took years to get some of my friends to listen and they were absolutely hooked.

Awesome interview man

[@davemroz8503]

Great interview!

[@max2244ful]

Jen is for me the best female drummer in the world.

[@MUSICTRON-x4q]

Agreed

[@fritzguldenpfennig2486]

The best Skillet songs are the ones with strings. But I'm glad they're not in every song. The string songs sound really special

[@lukagrdzelishvili]

Not sure they're the best ones but then again I can never pick out 1 but yeah that makes them really special

[@ethanr.cardwell5178]

love what john did what jen had to get done that was funny

That beard hahah sick

[@xtov9826]

Wait when does he start talking about Billie eilish

[@YonexSinad]

13:00

[@GrumpyWolfTech]

I'm kinda upset the album didn't get higher on the billboard 200 like unleashed did, but it's still an amazing album. In my opinion, it's better than unleashed. Also you symphonic rock songs are the best, not gonna die is still my favorite song. Also, post malone? gross xD

[@johnathanpratt944]

You are entitled to your opinion, but I find the Unleashed album overall more enjoyable. Perhaps the more consistently heavier guitars are what get me, especially "Out Of Hell" and "Breaking Free"

It does if you listen to the lyrics. Don't ask silly questions. John ALWAYS talks about being a follower of Jesus.

[@littlebear9842]

@@nurfacealways I listen to Billie eilish and yes one of her songs is sacreligious sounding, but her other songs have good meanings like Lovely and I love you etc. As Christians we should be able to control ourselves and ignore the anti-Jesus lyrics and that is what John's wife does. If you followed him on any of his social medias you would see how much of a strong believer he is in Christ. He posts about Jesus often. And he doesn't cuss or do drugs and he calls false prophets out when they are doing wrong. He wrote a whole article about it recently. And he knows that adultry is wrong and gay marriage is wrong and he is an open proud Christian. Don't judge him and put words in his mouth. You sound like a Pharisee.
