Kissing Candice commence their rebirth with the release of their new single “Skeletons” featuring Heidi Shepherd from Butcher Babies. Every time the opportunity arises for the band to take their theatrical antics and on-stage chaos to the next level, they do not pass it up, and this track is no exception. The band seamlessly melds their early metalcore and nu-metal influences with the melodic mastery of current active rock to create a new iteration of Kissing Candice. Heidi Shepherd’s unrelentingly heavy feature acts as the cherry on top. The release coincides with the unveiling of their new masks and 2023 appearance at Louder Than Life Festival.
