Skunk Anansie Because Of You Out now!!
New Single Released September 14th On One Little Indian
Greatest Hits Record Smashes and Trashes Out November 2nd
5 million album sales, one of the most forthright, iconic, and confrontational female lead singers in modern musical history, a six-year back catalogue to make you quiver, Skunk Anansie are back!
They return with their epic new single Because Of You, out September 14th, from their forthcoming Greatest Hits record, Smashes and Trashes out November 2nd.
Following an eight-year hiatus, Skunk Anansie are re-born, revitalised and as confrontational as ever, fully armed with highly charged, brand new tracks, a blistering greatest hits record and a 21-date sold out European tour.
Written and produced by Skunk Anansie Skin (Lead Vocals), Cass (bass), Ace (Guitar) and Mark Richardson (Drums) Because Of You is bursting with visceral energy. Kicking off with a sinister, nape prickling guitar riff, Skins intense vocal, which has never sounded better climbs on top, the track then hits you with a powerful wall of sound, showcasing their raw power and guile.
No ones really sounded like us since weve been away, says Skin.
I think that people are ready for a bit of in-yer-face tuneful rock music again. I see us in competition with every band thats out there and I think were better than we were before. If we didnt feel like that, it would be sad and pathetic.
The Greatest Hits record Smashes and Trashes is a 15-track career-embracing album. It features classic moments from their first two Top Ten albums Paranoid & Sunburnt, Stoosh and their 1999 album Post Orgasmic Chill. From the rejoiceful Weak to the anthemic Hedonism (Just Because You Feel Good) its a timeless record brimming with hits, which is translated into the here and now in the form of their three brand new tracks; Because Of You, Tear The Place Up and Squander.
In support of their Greatest Hits record, Skunk Anansie play a 21-date sold out European tour, which kicks off in Brussels (October 9th) and is brought to a close with a special show at Brixton Academy (November 26th).
