19.06. SKUNK ANANSIE – „Meltdown“ (Blackhill Remix) (FLG/OPEN)
Limitierte Zoetrope-Vinyl-Edition – Veröffentlichung am 9. Oktober 2026
Sommer-Tourdaten in ganz Europa und Großbritannien
June 19th, 2026: British rock icons SKUNK ANANSIE have released a brand-new remix of the stunningly emotional song ‚Meltdown‘, which originally appeared as the closing track of last year’s Top 10 album The Painful Truth.
Lead singer Skin explains, „‚Meltdown‘ is this deeply heartbreaking song about isolation. It’s one of the few Skunk songs that doesn’t have a beat making it a perfect end to the album. We wanted to do a version that grooved a bit so we called up our friend Nick Sheldon [Blackhill] to add that flavour and we love what he’s done, hope you do too.“
The song, released on the same day as the emancipation of black Americans is remembered with the Juneteenth holiday, becomes transformed from a sparsely ethereal, vocal-led piece of minimalist piano music into a club-based anthem. Despite the sadness of the lyrics, its new and upbeat musical backing is celebratory and destined to ring out across sound-systems from New York to Ibiza.
Its parent album, The Painful Truth, is a mesmerising, provocative, powerful and emotional collection, which was greeted by rapturous reviews around the world on its release at the end of May 2026. And to mark that recent one-year anniversary, a brand-new limited-edition zoetrope vinyl version of the album will be released on October 9th, via FLG Records.
