The band took to the streets and slums of Mumbai, India to film the video, guerilla style, for the single. Working with the casting director from “Slumdog Millionaire” the band spent a chaotic few days dodging police to deliver a powerful trademark live performance, interspersed around the mean streets of Mumbai.

With over 500,000 albums sold, fourpiece Skindred are one of the UK's best live bands - regularly headlining festival stages from Bogota to Bosnia and beyond... This year the band will play to audiences of over 2 million. They also made their Reading/Leeds festival debut on the mainstage in August 2013 with their unique blend of rock, metal, reggae, roots and dub. Skindred will release their eagerly awaited new studio album, "Kill The Power", in early 2014.
