Fresh from tearing through crowds in the USA, UK and Europe during two of the biggest (and arguably diverse) support slots going (Bullet For My Valentine, Gogol Bordello), Skindred return to the UK shores to remind fans both new and hardened, why they have been tagged as the '...best live band in the UK' (Kerrang - recent KKKKK live review).
The UK Ragga-Punk-Metallers begin their 2008 UK headline run, entitled the 'GUNSHOT MEANS REWIND' Tour this May, to promote their new album 'ROOTS ROCK RIOT', which features the crowd pleasers 'Rat Race', 'Rudeboy For Life' and the new single 'Trouble'. The new record (available on Warner Bros/Bieler Bros) is the follow up to their debut release 'BABYLON' which has reached worldwide sales of over 300,000 and featured the songs 'Pressure' and US chart-topping 'Nobody'.
The 2008 'GUNSHOT MEANS REWIND' tour kicks off on the 15th May, and features support from Exeter-based IDIOM (recent supports to From Autumn To Ashes) and other very special guests.
