Kill the Power

Skindred

It's what happens when a metal band and a dancehall sound system decide to start a riot together.

An explosive, high-energy celebration of defiance and unity.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The title track's transition from a skeletal dub verse into a massive, wall-of-sound metal chorus.
The unexpected synth-pop textures and melodic hooks that anchor the middle of 'The Kids Are Right Now'.
The frantic, high-speed ragga delivery on 'Ninja' that perfectly syncs with the double-kick drumming.
