Martin Walkyier is one of the most popular and richest Singer who was born on November 20, 1967 in United Kingdom.

Martin Walkyier (born 20 November 1967) is an English singer known for his bands Sabbat and Skyclad and for his lyrics. Metal Hammer journalist, the late Detlef Dengler, called Walkyier a “great lyricist” known for his multitude of words and “brilliant puns”; yet Walkyier was never asked to write lyrics for other bands, “unfortunately”, as he says. Author Paul Stenning has referred to Walkyier as a “lyrical genius”.

Sabbat reformed in 2006 to play shows. In late 2008, he had finished the recordings for The Clan Destined’s debut album and recorded vocals for Hell’s debut album; Walkyier has stated that “Hell and especially their singer Dave Halliday were my idols in the early 1980s. My friends all listened to Metallica, but I felt attracted by bands with image and true personality. The theatrics of bands like Hell influenced me tremendously.” As Walkyier’s friend Andy Sneap also was “a fanatic Hell supporter”, they approached the remaining three members after Halliday’s suicide and offered to help them out as singer and guitarist and give the old songs a modern production. He also contributed guest vocals for Cradle of Filth and Forgodsake. In 2008 or 2009, Walkyier announced he was working on a rock opera, the story being titled Plugging Hellfire and published in Devolution magazine, illustrated by Neil Sims, and a biography with Paul Stenning’s support.

Unfair contracts, incompetent advisers, wrong decisions and my naivety almost broke my neck. I ended up feeling like in a marriage not divorced because of the children.” Walkyier left Skyclad and started working as a nightwatchman for a furniture store, gave occasional concerts under the name Return to the Sabbat and started the company Prick Tees, which designs and produces T-shirts.
