Skinny Pelembe releases new cut "Deadman Deadman Deadman"
Skinny Pelembe shares "Deadman Deadman Deadman", the final single taken from his second album Hardly The Same Snake.
"Deadman Deadman Deadman" contemplates the transient nature of life and the legacy we leave behind. As Skinny Pelembe says: "You can be any kind of person you want, eventually we all end up in the same place.”
The single is accompanied by a fittingly dark video which features chilling, AI-generated portraits of Skinny Pelembe, interspersed with sinister imagery of priests, skulls and businessmen.
Hardly The Same Snake is Skinny Pelembe’s second album, following 2019’s Dreaming Is Dead Now, which was released on Gilles Peterson’s Brownswood Recordings.
“I never considered myself a singer before now,” says Skinny Pelembe. “This album is what I would have created first time round had I rated my own voice.”
Skinny Pelembe has also announced a UK headline in October.
"Deadman Deadman Deadman" is out now. Skinny Pelembe's Hardly The Same Snake album will arrive via Partisan Records on 28 April, and is available to pre-order now. Tickets for the October tour can be found here.
