They're back (together, that is)!
For those of you who don't remember this group, they sold about 5 million albums from 1994-2001 when they broke up. Along the way, may of us couldn't help but be mesmerized by the tall, bald, Black female lead singer, Skin. Unfortunately, for those of us Stateside, there are no US dates yet. However, fans in Europe will get to see them starting in October. Here goes:

It's been a while, so here's a taste of Skin and company from a recent London show. All you audiophiles will appreciate that they took a mix off the board instead of being lazy and going with wild sound.
And here's another:
