The Skints - Live. Believe. Build. Believe. -2009-
(Reggae, Ska, Punk)

From: London
Website: http://www.myspace.com/theskintsuk

This is one rocking debut album full of raw and unbridled energy and tight grooves. The Skints bridge the gap between early UK reggae classics (think UB40’s ‘Present Arms’ and Steel Pulse’s ‘Handsworth Revolution’) and the contemporary, conscious street-sounds of The King Blues with just enough of The Clash thrown in to keep me listening to most of the album on repeat. The Skints are Marcia Richards - Vocals, Saxophone, Organ & Melodica. Josh Waters Rudge - vocals & Guitar. Jamie Kyriakides - Vocals & Drums and Jon Doyle - Bass. Very cool dub soaked tales straight from the youth of London.
