Album DescriptionAvailable in:
"A Burnt Offering for the Bone Idol" is the second album by British folk metal group Skyclad, released in 1992 on the Noise label..
The inclusion of Fritha Jenkins to the lineup brought even more folk influence to the band with her style of fiddle playing, and this album saw a slight move away from the thrash based style of the first album with the writing of such live classics as 'Spinning Jenny', 'Men of Straw' and 'The Declaration of Indifference'.The 'Bone Idle' album featured the more prominent inclusion of the fiddle playing lead lines and melodies normally associated with the lead guitar parts of most other rock bands. The prominence of the fiddle in there music, and the now legendary folky jig style of a lot of their songs, very much set the standard for the next ten years of the band.
