Skin

Musician

Deborah Anne Dyer, known as Skin, is the lead vocalist of Skunk Anansie and a solo artist with releases including Fleshwounds (2003) and Fake Chemical State (2006).

Vocalist of Skunk Anansie. Solo albums include Fleshwounds (2003) and Fake Chemical State (2006). Fleshwounds was written in collaboration with Len Arran and recorded in Belgium (as noted in DeBaser reviews).

Three DeBaser reviews give a mixed picture: powerful, distinctive vocals praised; some solo material deemed slow or less convincing. Highlights include the single "Trashed" and the song "Purple". Overall a split between admiration for voice/emotion and criticism of pacing.

For:Fans of alternative/rock, listeners who appreciate strong, emotional vocals, and followers of Skunk Anansie.

 It tears you apart until you bleed, but then it licks the wound with an unexpected sweetness, perhaps more beautiful for that reason.

 Finally, it’s worth highlighting the beauty of “Purple”, which echoes the classic U2 soundscapes, and “Take Me On” played with ’Marlene Kuntz’, with a vocal style reminiscent of Kim Gordon from ’Sonic Youth’.
