Beautiful Skeletons Release New Album PULSE/LINE/SCAR via WURMgroup
Producer Ulrich Wild, known for work with Pantera and Static-X, helmed the ten-track record.
Alternative metal band Beautiful Skeletons have released their album, Pulse/Line/Scar, today, August 21st via WURMgroup. Produced by heavy music producer Ulrich Wild (Pantera, Static-X, Breaking Benjamin, White Zombie), the album captures a band unafraid to tear everything apart in pursuit of something honest, powerful, and enduring. Coinciding with the album's release, Beautiful Skeletons have also premiered the official music video for 'Myrkur,' giving fans a visual to one of the album's standout tracks.
More than a collection of songs, Pulse/Line/Scar serves as a deeply personal yet universally relatable body of work, exploring resilience, identity, loss, and the invisible threads that connect every human experience.
The band shares, 'Pulse Line Scar is a universal anthology of lived stories, brought together by the thin red pulse line that connects us all, the same line that brings us life and the same line that leaves a permanent impression.'
Pulse/Line/Scar showcases a band that has found strength in vulnerability and purpose through perseverance. Every track reflects the tension between chaos and clarity, pain and healing, creating an album that is as emotionally immersive as it is sonically crushing.
With Pulse/Line/Scar, Beautiful Skeletons are poised to establish themselves as one of alternative metal's most compelling emerging acts, delivering an album that doesn't simply ask to be heard, it demands to be felt.

Beautiful Skeletons didn't come together cleanly and that's exactly the point.
The band was formed in 2017 after guitarist Einar posted a Craigslist ad searching for a vocalist. What began as an instinctive collaboration gradually evolved through lineup changes, setbacks, and creative discovery. Over time, the project transformed from an idea into something none of the members were willing to walk away from—a defining commitment that became, in their words, a 'do or die decision you can only make once.'
That commitment intensified in 2022 when the band received management support and hit the road alongside Yngwie Malmsteen. The experience offered an unfiltered look at the realities of the music industry and solidified their determination to push Beautiful Skeletons beyond potential and into purpose.
Trying to categorize Beautiful Skeletons has never been easy—and they prefer it that way.
Drawing inspiration from Deftones, Alice In Chains, Sevendust, Korn, and Nine Inch Nails, the group seamlessly blends crushing riffs, haunting atmosphere, soaring melodies, and modern heaviness into a sound that refuses to stay confined to one genre.
That fearless approach reached its fullest expression during the recording of Pulse/Line/Scar. Recorded in Los Angeles and produced by Ulrich Wild at WURMgroup, every song was challenged, dismantled, and rebuilt until it carried the emotional and sonic weight the band envisioned. The process forced Beautiful Skeletons to confront not only their songwriting but also their identity as musicians, resulting in their most focused and powerful work to date.
