Editorial Reviews

Ex-Skunk Anansie frontwoman returns with her debut solo album. Shying away from Skunk's incendiary politicizing towards a more chilled out, melancholy vibe described by the singer herself as 'a cross between Nina Simone & Radiohead', the album features piano, electronics & only the occasional rock guitar. Features 11 tracks including the single 'Trashed'. Copy Controlled. Capitol. 2003. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars skin is better alone. (or atleast, just as good), December 5, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Flesh Wounds (Audio CD)

if you're looking for the in-your-face angry vocals of stoosh then, this is probably -not- for you. however, if you know anything about skin, or about what she's about then you'll know that this is probaly one of the best moves she made. yes, this album is laden with emotional baggage, and skin does it with style. there is barely a song on here that doesn't appeal. having seen skin perform most of this album live before buying it, i might be biased - however it's an album that brings out skin's emotional side, she's still the same - bittingly satirical with vocals that could put anyone to shame. from 'trashed', to 'you've made your bed' to 'lost' this album is a real introduction to skin on her own, and she's still got it.

4.0 out of 5 stars dark pop, May 16, 2006

This review is from: Flesh Wounds (Audio CD)

Skin's solo album is fine;it has lots of really impressive and entertaining moments in her well built songs,and i guess no one can say anything bad about her voice.She is talented,the music is not special;but it is mature and of good quality.

Skunk anasie days are mostly over and most of the songs are not anywhere near the definition of "rock" except few of them, but this doesnt mean they are bad at all.

the album works around personal issues without getting too personal and sticks to the common stories of getting over someone, loving someone,losing someone,being the 'other woman' for someone...

You can think of this album as a much darker,much adult version of DİDO;it is an honest,nice album;will never make you wrapped around itself but also will not disappear for many years.

5.0 out of 5 stars In a word "AWESOME", December 3, 2009
