SKIN -- "India's Got the Bomb"
This is one video from SKIN’s full length debut cd+dvd. “India’s Got the Bomb” is about symbols and how they’re interpreted and misinterpreted by cultures around the world (That’s the lofty answer)… or it’s about what you can do with a bunch of wingdings and some imagination.
The concept behind Skin is full Multi-Media--The kind of thing the A/V dork at your high school would love. Or the stoner kid who listened to Pink Floyd in the park…you get the picture.
SKIN’s cd+dvd is the first true video album. Yeah, I know bands have been including DVD’s with their albums to futilely try to stave off illegal downloads, but this is different—the visuals and music were conceived and created together to form an immersive experience not only on the DVD, but also in Skin’s live show (A short montage of our live show is included on the DVD). Each song has it’s own unique visual representation (music video just sounds so 80’s era MTV, doesn’t it?), and we threw in that old almost completely outdated audio format, the CD, as well.
The band features members of Mutaytor and former members of P.I.L.

A black lesbian who led the band Skunk Anansie is called Skin...this isn't her is it?
I like the video, it's just too long.
nope, this isn't the black lesbian. It's an electronic group out of LA. In typical electronica fashion, it's not a single...therefore it is long. This is projected as part of the live show, and EVERY song has it's own visual representation (some as short as 4 minutes, some as long as 11).
