Epic performance

From the meet and greet to the end of the show Skindred showed why they are the next biggest band from the UK. The set list was amazing and the energy was electric. Benji and the boys were so tight and the crowd was eating out of their hands. Skindred you did us proud

Skindred, Corn Exchange, Ipswich - 3rd November 2024

Rejoice in the Ragga Metal lunacy!!

Simply one of the best gigs Ipswich has seen in a looooong time! Native James opened up with great energy and enthusiasm followed by Nonpoint and their brilliant Groove laden heaviness. Then came the Dred. One of the best live bands in the world. They make you feel like they’re your best mate. Benji is so cool I named my Dog after him! Thank you for a night we will treasure for a long long time!

Awesome as always

Skindred never fail to disappoint or give it their all. I think they were maybe running a little late though as there wasn’t as much crowd engagement as I’ve seen in previous gigs, but they still connected. If you’ve not seen them before then check them out!

Info
Listen

Reggae should be laid back, easy going and chilled out. Not when Skindred get their hands on it, it isn’t! This is reggae with attitude, fired up with a healthy dose of post-punk thrash and heavy-metal to create a unique sound that’s been a big hit on the festival circuit.

They have released eight studio albums including latest LP Smile (2023).

Artist Bio

Reggae should be laid back, easy going and chilled out. Not when Skindred get their hands on it, is isn’t! This is Reggae with attitude, fired up with a healthy dose of post-punk thrash and heavy metal to create a unique sound that’s been a big hit on the festival circuit. Now the band from Wales are bringing their unique take on the Reggae genre to venues across the UK and at Gigantic we’ve got tickets for the majority of the Skindred tour dates this year. But we expect these tickets to move quickly so if you want to discover what happens when Bob Marley meets Motorhead, you’ll need to grab yours now.

Formed in 1998 out of the remains of vocalist Benji Webbe's previous band, Dub War, Skindred had a slightly shaky start as it took some time to finalise the line-up. However, once the band members had been confirmed, they started work on their debut album ‘Babylon’. It made its appearance in 2002 and had some success in the European and US metal scene. In 2004 the band re-released the album with new artwork and additional tracks. This time the album popped, and picked up some serious critical acclaim as well as a solid fanbase following.

Skindred went on to hit the tour circuits, as well as releasing four more albums, ‘Roots Rock Riot’ in 2007, the successful ‘Shark Bites and Dog Fights’ in 2009, followed by ‘Union Black’ in 2011 and ‘Kill the Power’ in 2014. Their new album ‘Volume’ is scheduled for release this year. The band has also managed to collect a couple of awards, including The Metal Hammer Golden Gods award for ‘Best Live Band’ in 2011. Since then they’ve gone from strength to strength, and their live performances are now regarded as some of the best on the metal circuit. The Reggae undertones are still there, but the band’s unique sound has to be experienced to be fully appreciated. Grab your Skindred tickets from Gigantic now.
