You really need to hear it man. Those are both good songs too, though.

"Wasted Days" is a classic album.

ive seen em twice, one of the best ska bands out there. and theyre not changing to punk at all, actually theyre kind of going backwards if you think about it. Close My Eyes was one of the most rocksteady albums theyve ever done.

I had a dream I was listening to a new Slackers song called 40th Birthday, it was really good

apparently, they are amazing live, they just came through my area, but i didn't get to see them. I hear it was quite a fun show though. I did a project on Dave Hillyard, their sax player, last year for english (we were doing this jazz thing).

My ex girlfriend bought me Wasted Days for my Christmas one year. I don't listen to it. But they're not so bad at all.

amazing band. I have Redlight, it's a really good album. I love the Fried Chicken song, married girl, and Rude and Reckless. Really good ska band.

They might be the best thing to happen to Ska music since the Specials. Amazing albums, amazing live show. I'm so ****ing glad that I got a chance to hear them live, and they're STILL touring and a full length is slated for sometime next year, I hear.

While I'm doing rankings:

1. Redlight
2. Wasted Days
3. The Question
