Skunk Anansie have released a new single, Can’t Take You Anywhere. The song follows the release of Piggy, which came out in late January, and comes ahead of the band’s upcoming UK tour, which kicks off in London next week.
“This track is a double-edged sword,” says singer Skin. “We all have that one friend that we love but is a total embarrassment to us, a mate that has no off button and no filter. So if they aren’t losing their phone/keys/coat, they’re saying some stuff that will defo get you cancelled by all your other mates.
“This song is about how polarised the world is now, and how careful you need to be. It’s about dealing with the new world order of friendship, as never before have I had great long term friends develop completely opposing views to mine. It’s about having to navigate and understand people, keeping the love and respect but also standing firm in your opinions.”
Skunk Anansie will also be appearing at the Grace Jones-curated Meltdown Festival in London this June, and will be returning return to the Glastonbury Festival the same month. The band headlined headlined the Pyramid Stage at the festival in 1999. Tour dates below.
