Landing January 25th, 2019 on Republic Of Music, Skunk Anansie have also released a new video of their 1996 classic ‘Weak’. Watch below.

Touching on the early days of the group, front woman Skin said:

“As a black female singer, it was hard to get accepted in many ways,” says Skin. “And then I was onstage, doing exactly what I envisioned in my dreams. And I felt for the first time that I was accepted.”

Skunk Anansie guitarist Ace also mentioned:

“London in the 1990s was a mish-mash of people,” adds guitarist Ace, “But bands weren’t – it was always four blokes with identical haircuts. We were a band of people who were real. That’s why we were radical.”
