Release Date: April 17, 2026

Boom! Skindred are back with their trademark ragga-inflected metal riffs that will make you start a mosh pit. New for 2026.

At the outset of 2023, Benji Webbe considered his band Skindred to be Britain’s best kept secret. Newport’s reggae-metal soundsystem had earned a wealth of respect, especially on the live front with their life-affirming energy, crowd-pleasing antics, and runaway charisma. Whether they were touring with Korn or KISS, Skindred would bring the noise and leave Arena-sized rooms full of people - often complete newcomers who’d never heard the band before - beaming from ear-to-ear.

But as the year unfolded, Skindred flipped from cult curiosity to mainstream success: the ‘Smile’ album shot to #2 in the UK charts, they headlined their own packed out Wembley Arena, became proud winners of Best Alternative Act at the MOBO Awards, and topped the bill on different Glastonbury stages two years in a row. The irresistible ‘Gimme That Boom’ was their first calling card, soundtracking sporting events on both sides of the Atlantic, featuring in EA Sports’ ‘Madden 25’ game, and the song they performed on ‘Later… with Jools Holland’.

The dilemma that comes with such a breakthrough is: how can you possibly top that?

For Skindred and the upcoming ‘You Got This’ album, the answer turned out to be deceptively simple. You come out fighting with a lean, all-killer-no-filler set that distils everything that people love about the band - hard-hitting slammers, mega addictive hooks, earwormy soundclash elements, and dancehall vibes destined to ignite festivals and live shows across the globe.

And in Benji, they have the ultimate frontman — a man whose wild enthusiasm is instantly contagious, delivering the album’s other great strength: an adrenaline shot of pure motivation. His phenomenally powerful vocals are balanced with lighter, melodic moments of emotion that champion self-belief, resilience, and finding joy in the small things that make life worth living – he’s the loudest life coach you’ll ever meet.

So, for Skindred, the ‘Smile’ wave of discovery was just the start of more adventures to follow. Where it takes them is yet to be written, but one thing is certain: they got this.
