UK hard rock power trio, Skam, are thrilled to announce details of their new album – “The Amazing Memoirs of Geoffrey Goddard” (#“TAMOGG”).
The album, Skam's 3rd, is scheduled for release on Friday 17th November, 2017, and is available now on pre-order here in multiple formats – MP3, CD and Vinyl.
The album features 11 original songs written and performed by Skam. Recorded at AXIS Studios in Doncaster, UK in late 2016 it was produced, mixed and mastered by Matt Ellis. The exceptional album artwork was especially commissioned and produced by Jack Morrey.
The album features a story-arc of Squadron Leader Geoffrey Goddard, a test pilot from 1935, who is a victim of strange forces that jolt him through time. The songs and accompanying album artwork, videos and booklets tell his tale as he battles to return home and at times, for his very sanity.
Singer/Guitarist, Steve Hill, said: “We have been living and breathing this for a couple of years now; writing, crafting, honing what has become our third album. We have gone old school with the whole thing, from recording it 'as a band in a room', through to gatefold vinyl and really going to town on the artwork. So, to say we can't wait for folk to hear it and experience it, is possibly THE understatement of 2017”.

01. Prologue
02. Between the Eyes
03. The Iron Cross
04. Otherside
05. Take It or Leave It
06. Peace of Mind
