Skunkworks is a heavy metal album released in 1996 (see 1996 in music) by Bruce Dickinson.
Originally, Bruce intended for Skunkworks to be the debut album of a band by the same name. Thus, the album sounds quite different from Bruce's other solo works. Furthermore, the songs are relatively short, with most running around 3 minutes. The band didn't last and for his next solo project, Accident of Birth, he teamed up with guitarist Roy Z again to produce a much more successful album.
Prior to the album's release, Bruce cut his hair in order to distance himself from his image in his days with Iron Maiden. Ironically, he has kept the short hair since then despite rejoining Iron Maiden in 1999 and returning to a more traditional style of metal.
In 2005, Skunkworks was re-released and the 2005 extended version included songs performed live, such as "Inertia", "Faith", "Innerspace", "The Prisoner" and other previously unreleased songs.
All Songs by Dickinson and Alex Dickson, except "Innerspace" by Dickinson, Dickson, Chris Dale.
