The English alternative metal band Skindred has released a new song “Gimme That Boom” and the video is available now. This new song is one of the twelve songs that will be featured on the forthcoming album “Smile” which will be released on August 4, 2023 via Earache Records.
The song “Gimme That Boom” is based on an interaction frontman Benji Webbe had with an overly familiar fan. Benji said :
“I was out shopping one day and I could hear someone building up asking me for a picture. The person didn’t care who I was with or what I was doing – they just wanted their picture. In this day and age, people want you and they expect to get you on tap, constantly giving you that ‘boom’ so they can get their Instagram Likes up. It’s important to remember that people can’t give you that ‘boom’ all the time. People think because they follow you on social media, they own you.”
