Skindred
Skindred formed in Newport, Wales in 1998 around vocalist Benji Webbe, formerly of reggae-metal act Dub War, and developed a hybrid sound fusing heavy metal, reggae, dancehall, and punk that the band termed 'ragga metal.' Their debut Babylon (2002) introduced the formula, and subsequent records including Roots Rock Riot (2007), Union Black (2011), and Big Tings (2016) refined it into one of the most distinctive propositions in modern hard rock. Smile (2023) charted at number two in the UK, their career-best chart position. Skindred are known for their high-energy live shows and the crowd-participation phenomenon known as the Newport Helicopter.
