Primordial Radio is very excited to announce that Skindred guitarist Mikey Demus will be taking part in the Radio Residency for April.
Hosted by presenter Adam Whalley, the Radio Residency will air every Wednesday, with Mikey joining Adam to talk about the band’s new album ‘You Got This’ which is due for release on April 17th via Earache Records.
Mikey also talks about his musical journey from a teenager inspired by the extraterrestrial energy of Jimi Hendrix to headlining Wembley, his hands-on approach to boutique gear design with Redbeard Effects, and why the “weirdos on top” philosophy is essential for the future of British rock. He also shares his candid views on the limitations of AI and what it means to maintain the soul and nuance of dancehall-infused metal in 2026.

You Got This is Skindred’s ninth album and is an all-killer-no-filler set which features everything that people love about the band – hard-hitting slammers, mega addictive hooks, earwormy soundclash elements, and dancehall vibes destined to ignite venues across the globe. The title track was released as the first single from the album late last year, accompanied by a brilliantly entertaining video. And it was followed in January by the fiery and fizzing hook-laden banger ‘This Is The Sound’.
Production for the album came from the Grammy-winning Jay Ruston, who drummer Arya Goggin admires for having the songwriting chops to work with ‘80s power ballad master Desmond Child, while also producing Slipknot’s Corey Taylor and Mike Patton’s, Mr Bungle.
Long-revered as one of the best live bands on the planet, they played their largest headline show to date at Wembley Arena and toured the world, smashing every festival and headline performance and winning tens of thousands of new fans in the process. Those new fans will join Skindred’s long-established rabid fanbase in lapping up every note and lyric of You Got This.
