Skunk Anansie will release their new album Black Traffic on September 17.
The record will be the band's fifth studio album and will be their first independent release via their own label working in partnership with 100% Records.
"We've wanted to be charge of our own destiny for many years," says vocalist Skin. "The doom and gloom merchants may whine about the music industry but we've seen it as a positive chance to re-invent how we work and take more control over our art form."
"With our new album Black Traffic and new label we are really excited with the future of Skunk, this is my personal favorite as an album, even better than Wonderlustre which spawned some great songs."
"We're back," she adds, "and - fuck me - we're gonna enjoy every last minute of it!"
Black Traffic was recorded in London and produced by Skunk Anansie and Chris Sheldon (Foo Fighters, Biffy Clyro, Pixies) and mixed by Jeremy Wheatley and Adrian Bushby.
Skunk Anansie will play London's O2 Academy Brixton on December 1.
