Episode 183 - Paranoid and Sunburnt by Skunk Anansie (Side B)

And so we’re back to talk some more about Skunk Anansie and this time, THIS TIME, to actually chat about the album we said we would talk about, Paranoid and Sunburnt.

But before we get there of course, we also chat about Skin because her influence and mere presence in the music both back in the 90s and now, are huge. She’s a very interesting character in her own right, so it would be remiss of us not to talk about her.

After that, we then dig into the album proper. This weird hard rock/funk rock hybrid which sounds more American than British, and produced the huge (yet strangely not their most popular on streaming services) single Weak. Is it an album which has stood the test of time? Are the band unsung and underappreciated?

As ever, you decide. Vote below.
