Skunk Anansie

Skunk Anansie are a London alt-rock band formed by Skin, Cass Lewis, Ace and Mark Richardson. Their catalogue includes albums such as Paranoid & Sunburnt, Stoosh and Post Orgasmic Chill, with a sound shaped by heavy guitars, funk-influenced rhythms and confrontational writing. The Painful Truth became their first studio album in nine years and was produced by David Sitek. Lead single ‘Cheers’ combines deep grooves and a forceful chorus while retaining the tension between aggression and melody that has defined the band’s work.
