A Welsh metal group that fuses reggae rhythms with chugging nu-metal riffs, Skindred's idiosyncratic style draws from a wide range of genres that also include hardcore punk, jungle, ska, hip-hop, dancehall, drum'n'bass, and dubstep. Emerging in the early aughts, the band topped the Billboard reggae charts with their 2002 debut, Babylon, while reaching the upper echelons of the U.K. metal charts with high-energy efforts like Volume (2015) and Big Tings (2018). Smile, the stalwart metaller's eighth long-player, appeared in 2023.
