Skindred bring their unmistakable high-energy live show to the event. Formed in Newport in 1998, the band are renowned for their genre-defying fusion of Heavy Metal with reggae, punk, hip hop and electronic influences, a sound they have dubbed ragga Metal.
Fronted by Benji Webbe, Skindred have built a global reputation as one of the most dynamic live acts in Heavy music. Their performances are known for their intensity, crowd interaction and unpredictability.
Skindred – You Got This due April 17, 2026 via Earache Records.
The band are also preparing to release their ninth album, You Got This, via Earache Records, continuing to evolve their sound with powerful riffs, driving rhythms and anthemic hooks.
The album was produced by Grammy‑winner Jay Ruston, whose genre‑hopping pedigree mirrors Skindred’s boundary‑free attack. Watch the You Got This video now and pre‑order the album ahead of its April release.
