Slow, Low, and Brutally Truthful; Thunder Horse gives Southern Sludge Metal a new twist. Thunder Horse is an in your face project of long time touring veterans and seasoned musicians. All four members have a long history of friendship with a chemistry that was right to break ground on something new. An eclectic background of influences and styles are what sets Thunder Horse apart from the pack. Thunder Horse oozes influences of soulful guitar driven southern metal and hails inspiration from the iconic bands that inspired them to be musicians.

The Skatenigs rose at the beginning of the 90’s from the midst of Austin, Texas hard-core scene by way of a conceptual idea entertained by Al Jourgensen of Ministry. They were a band of white, skating rappers, initially created to fill the support slot for Ministry. The original line-up featured Phil Owen on vocals, Billy Jackson and Chris Chambers sharing guitar duties, Lance Von Moulder playing bass, and Keith Daily on drums. The lead singer Phil Owen (a.k.a. Phildo) sang on the now legendary Revolting Cocks’ “Beers, Steers and Queers” and Chris Chambers worked on remixed version of the same track. The band supported the Revolting Cocks on their tour and gained huge success with their first single; “Chemical Imbalance” released in 1991, which also featured a spoken word by Lorri Jackson, a well-regarded Chicago poet. Shortly after, the “Loudspeaker” single was released in 1992. In the same year the Skatenigs recorded their first full length album, “Stupid People Shouldn’t Breed”, which contained both singles.
