Zkeletonz are back – and this time, they’re making serious noise. Their latest single, ‘Re-unite’, isn’t just a catchy indie-pop tune. It’s a bold, politically-charged statement that fuses dancefloor-ready grooves with sharp social commentary.
The UK-based band — already praised by BBC 6 Music, Radio X’s John Kennedy, and BBC Introducing — continue to build on their reputation for high-energy performances, clever visuals, and unapologetically creative sound.
‘Re-unite’ started off as a direct response to the luxury jet habits of a former Prime Minister. But as the band crafted the track, it took on a life of its own — combining edgy guitar riffs, funky undertones, and satirical wit. There’s a clear nod to classics like Simply Red’s ‘Money’s Too Tight to Mention’ and The Specials’ ‘Ghost Town’, the latter holding special meaning for Zkeletonz due to their shared Coventry roots.
The sound? Think modern electronic grooves with flavor from artists like Diplo, Santigold, and M.I.A., all channeled through the band’s in-house studio wizard, Ed. You’ll also catch the influence of Ibibio Sound Machine and Idles — the latter of whom shared early lineups with Zkeletonz back in Bristol.
With lyrics that bite and a beat that pulls you in, ‘Re-unite’ is more than just a protest song. It’s an anthem for dancing through the chaos — stylish, sharp, and unfiltered.
