Music heals. It makes us feel not so alone. Music lets us know that we are not the only ones who feel invisible sometimes. That no matter what you’re going through, someone else is going through the same thing. When I’m on stage and I see you singing, it becomes more than music to me. It is power. Power that breaks chains, loosens strongholds, and chases away demons. I see your tragedy. But I also see your triumph. No, you are not alone. We are all suffering together. And sometimes, just knowing that is enough to keep us fighting for one more day. -@johnlcooper 🎧🖤🖤 📸 = @rvszpatrik #music #skillet #rock #rockshow

Das erläuterte er in einem Interview mit Cryptic Rock wie folgt:

‚Save Me‘ was a song where I had written the chorus melody… I was thinking I could almost hear [FIVE FINGER] DEATH PUNCH doing that chorus. Then I said, ‚I just think that this could really be a SKILLET song.‘ Instead of moving towards ultra-metal, it can move a little bit towards romantic and sad. Then when we started recording it and working on the parts, I was, like, you know what? It can be sad and metal at the same time. I literally thought, ‚If this was a FIVE FINGER chorus, what would they do on the drums?‘ I know it doesn’t sound like FIVE FINGER — it sounds like SKILLET — but for a musician, if they really picked apart the guitar and the drum parts and the chorus, you can hear that being a DEATH PUNCH chorus with his voice — if Ivan [Moody] was singing it. Some bands don’t like to admit stuff like that, but I do. I like to pay homage to bands that I love, because I don’t have much of an ego — I think it’s cool. So, I can hear Ivan sing it.“

„Victorious“ erschien im August vergangenen Jahres. Die Platte markiert das nunmehr zehnte Studioalbum von Skillet.

Zuvor brachten sie 2016 ihre Scheibe „Unleashed“ auf den Markt. Das Selftitled-Debütwerk erschien derweil 1996.
