Newport ragga metal heroes Skindred have claimed the UK's No.1 album spot! In great news for fans of heavy music, Benji Webbe, Mikey Demus and Arya Goggin have secured their first number 1, beating a plethora of paltry purveyors of pop.
On receipt of their coveted No.1 trophy, Skindred told the Official Charts Company:
āAll of us in the band are absolutely blown away by the amazing reaction and support to our new album. We want to say thank you to everyone that came out this week to buy a copy, especially all of those in our extended family in the rock and metal communities.
To be the first Welsh Ragga Metal Punk band from Newport to hit Number 1 really is a special moment. It really is a Fairytale of Newport"
Congratulations from the staff and listeners of Planet Rock!
Skindred have truly shown that Nobody can Kill The Power of these Big Tings - You Got This!
We did it! āYOU GOT THISā is the UKās official No 1 Album!
We couldnāt have done it without all of YOU! Thank you for all your love and support. The UK heavy music community stands tall. It means everything. Love Arya, Benji, Mikey and Tommy. Skindred xxx
The love you are showing us is honestly blowing us away. There are only a few more hours left to make a change.
We are part of Heavy Music community and are proud to represent you in the fight against major labels putting a strangle hold on the arts. We are a band of the people for the people. Thank you x

Every single sale counts. We are so close to bringing a number 1 album home for the Heavy Music Community. Last 12 hours to make a difference.
