Skunk Anansie Post New Single Can't Take You Anywhere

Skunk Anansie have shared a new single.
The pummelling Can't Take You Anywhere finds the band fusing electronic elements with roaring guitars, offering a similar dark aesthetic as Depeche Mode and Placebo. Guitarist and vocal Skin explained:
"This track is a double-edged sword. We all have that one friend that we love but is a total embarrassment to us, a mate that has no off button and no filter. So if they aren’t losing their phone/keys/coat, they're saying some stuff that will defo get you cancelled by all your other mates. This song is about how polarised the world is now, and how careful you need to be. It's about dealing with the new world order of friendship, as never before have I had great long term friends develop completely opposing views to mine. It's about having to navigate and understand people, keeping the love and respect but also standing firm in your opinions."
It follows the band's January single Piggy, and arrives amid their extensive spring UK and European tour. The trek includes rescheduled dates from their 25th Anniversary tour, plus new shows added due to demand.
