InDK is just plain punk. No-Ca$h sounds nearly identical to Leftover Crack, but have no members from any CRS7 bands.

Okay. Tell me if they're any good. I've never really gotten a chance to hear them.

i'm listening to them now, i'll let you know

-------------------------------------------

they're very fu'cking good

i saw a couple choking victim 7" go for $120 on ebay the other day.

that's really fuc[size=2]k[/size]ing sad, to be honest. i think there's just a point where you honestly shouldn't be paying that much for a freaking piece of plastic, no matter how rare it is or who's on it or whatever.

This should be called The Official Crack Rock Steady Thread

What about songs like East Coast Rising and Moonwalk Mafia

InDecay has some ska beats but mostly punk ones, so everyone just says "They are plain punk." I can name like 4 songs that have ska beats, and a lot of songs that are ska-ish but not on InDK, but instead M-Glory.

Good band, I've only ever heard FWT though. My favourite song is Super Tuesday, I even remember looking at the back of the CD after I bought it and thinking that any CD with a song title as awesome as Super Tuesday should be purchased on principle. I really don't like Operation MOVE, the lyrics are interesting but the song isn't very good and the 15 hours of instrumentals afterwards keeps it off any playlist.

just crop the dam[size=2]n[/size]ed thing. there are plenty of freeware programs out there that can crop mpg/mp3 files easily.

Theres the concert. I should get rep++ for this.[/QUOTE]

could anyone re-do this please? or upload any videos of crack rock steady bands?

cheers

Cheeser while that might solve that problem, I'll still be left with the other problem of it not being very good.

that's a matter of opinion. there are no freeware programs out there to change opinions just yet, but if i find any, i'll let you know.

I like Operation MOVE, the build-up is pretty good. It's the worst song on the album but it's still quite good.

I guess I like LoC, but I don't understand them. It sounds like they have a bunch of guitars and keyboards and on alot of songs it is overdone and sounds like s'hit. And maybe I'm misssing something but F'uck World Trade is a hardcore album with very little ska. I still like it, but I sure wouldn't call it ska, and its barely even skacore.

Well I don't think they never said they're hardcore. As for having a bunch of guitars and keyboards, I don't think so. The more I've heard is two guitars and a keyboard and how is that overdone? As for liking them or not, it's a question of musical taste but I think your reasonings are very weak.

I like them. I just don't understand them.

In case no ones posted it, [url]http://www.householdnamerecords.co.uk/[/url] says they definatly aint split up and theyre playing some shows.

[QUOTE=guns_of_brixton]I like them. I just don't understand them.[/QUOTE]

I don't understand you, but it's ok as long as you do.

[QUOTE=BoyOnFire]I really don't like Operation MOVE[/QUOTE]
:eek: I LOVE that song.
I love LoC, IMO they are one of the most talented and original bands out there.

[QUOTE=guns_of_brixton] And maybe I'm misssing something but F'uck World Trade is a hardcore album with very little ska. I still like it, but I sure wouldn't call it ska, and its barely even skacore.[/QUOTE]there are 13 tracks. 3 have ska. that's 25% of the album (excluding "soon we'll be dead" since it's something completely different). and although i've never cared to be particularly clear about genre nit-picking, i don't think i'd call them hardcore.

[QUOTE=cheeser_1]i don't think i'd call them hardcore.[/QUOTE]

I would... but I suck at genres.

Yeah, they;ve always come off as more of a hardcore band than anything else to me. They do have a few ska songs though, so I don't know if that makes them some other genre.

They are a punk band, just one of the better ones trying other things then screaming and playing as fast as possible.

They started out playing ska with punk influence as Choking Victim, but as they became more Leftover Crack they started blending more hardcore and punk, losing a lot of ska. FWT has the least amount of ska of all their albums, but it is still one of the best albums I heard last year. They just experiment with a lot of sounds. The piano breaks and other instrumental breaks make them who they are. It gives them something different when they go from growling crusty hardcore to a slow insturmental done on piano.

That helped clarify everything alot. Thanks Nicko.

It's what I do. Leftover Crack was one of the first punk bands and ska bands I got into, in fact my first thread here was asking about them.

I wouldn't be able to explain it better. That's what makes them so great. I love this band.

i think the point is that genres are irrelevant.

But also useful.
