Get Ready to Smile: Skindred Announces Album Release and UK Tour Dates with BlackGold

Skindred will release their new album Smile on 4 August 2023, and an 11-date UK Tour will follow in October. The first single released is Set Fazers, which you can watch below.

Pre-sale tour tickets are available from 10 am today, where album pre-orders have been made through https://webstore.earache.com/skindred, and the general sale will start at 10 am this Friday.

“There is a lot to Smile about when it comes to this tour,” drummer Arya Goggin says. “We are taking out an amazing new band called BlackGold too. They are bringing Nu Metal back, and I think ‘Dred fans will love them. Go check ’em out!”
