Sorry for the 3rd reply in a row but if anyone wanted to download some Milk2Sugars music go to their site at [URL="http://www.milk2sugars.net/"]http://www.milk2sugars.net/[/URL] and go to media... I love milk2sugars...

I've heard some good things about the OC Supertones. I'm really familiar with them. Does anyone here heard them, if so, what's you're opinion on them?

milk2sugars aren't really my kind of thing, but Matty Pee is just awesome at web design the guy runs circles around anything I could ever do :eek:

OC Supertones are cool, yeah I really like some of their stuff. Some of it just makes me feel weird though, listening to them sing about religion and stuff. Also some of the rap parts I don't like so much.

I just saw Antimaniax tonight, I saw them with Streetlight on Wednesday but the sound went wrong. I missed half their set tonight cus I was in the bar :upset: but they were awesome awesome awesome. Also I saw Crack Rock Steady 7 and they played Leftover Crack & Choking Victim covers which were the sex.

Hmmm.. I don't like the Supertones anymore. They only had a few good songs.

They have 1 amazing album spread out over 5 releases.

Grrr... I don't know whether or not to be mad... So im going to Ohio for X-Mas and have the choice to visit family in Chicago or just come home... If i go to Chicago i can see Mustard Plug (a band which i've never seen before live) or i could come home and see Catch 22 and Big D and the Kids Table and a few other less known ska bands (and i say less known cause i've never heard of them)... Well i've seen Catch 22 and Big D before and they both are amazing live so im a little worried i'd be dissapointed if i went and saw Mustard Plug and it wasnt that good... Has anyone here been to a Mustard Plug show? Is it worth going and seeing?

Im super siked about the new Patent Pending Cd :D :D :D

Hmmm tough call. I've seen Mustard Plug, they were fun live, don't like them recorded though. So I guess that's pretty impressive. But I think Big D are awesome live (don't know about Catch 22), and that show sounds like fun because it's all ska bands, as opposed to the Mustard Plug one which appears as if they are the only ska band.

If you really like Mustard Plug's music, I'd say see them, it's always fun to know you've seen a band live.

Haha, Jas, I'm beating you by one post in this thread. BAM

I've decided that i'm going to go see Mustard Plug... Catch 22 and Big D are awesome live but i've seen them several times before and will probably get the opportunity to see them again later on (cause they seem to come through my area a lot)... Of course if my family decides not to go to Chicago i'll be stuck with Catch 22 and Big D... Rats...

[QUOTE=ihatecelebrities]Haha, Jas, I'm beating you by one post in this thread. BAM[/QUOTE]

Click on the number in the column titled replies as you read across the page from the thread title.

What? That's nonsense! I'm now up by one! 141 to 140

Pick it up dude!

You forget her Jas and Jas2 names;)

Ah! But you forget my seven additional posts by PoisonParadox and I've Got Rude Bones!

So now I'm only down by ten :p


NP: Supervillians - Crippy Weed

Apparently I'm fourth. I never really thought I posted in this thread much.

I realized I'm not really in the race so I decided to pick up the slack.

Pick up the slack! I get it! Pick up! I get jokes.

Haha, someone got it. I got another one for ya, How many SKA kids does it take to screw in a light-bulb?

2.

1 to do the picking and 1 to chant pickituppickituppickituppickitup

I'll give it to ya. I was going to say:

Two, one to drop it and one to pick it up, pick it up, pick it up.

Don't worry I'll be here all week.

Yeah, thats better

There's a bit near the end of the new Harry Potter where Snape says "Pick it up! Pick it up!"

There's also a bit where Harry says "When I was in the graveyard, mine and Voldemort's wands connected" :lol: OH the joy

Planet Smashers - Cool Your Jets is one of the best songs ever. (it's in my head right now)...Can't wait for their tour :D

Well I finished uni for Christmas on Monday. 6 weeks of pure joy & sleep now ensues. I made an awesome PUNX jacket, lol, so far I have made a massive Operation Ivy back patch & sewn it on there, & also painted the :antimaniax: logo on the back, and BOTAR wings, & I put 2 more patches on - Filaments and Captain Everything! More to follow.

You is the p.u.n.x jas!

:lol: I know Swe, I really am.

I finally got my bum to the 56a Infoshop in London, which shares a premises with a vegan/organic food co-op, it's such an awesome place. Zine library, tons of zines for sale, records, CDs, loads of other stuff. Awesome. In a bit of a scary part of town though (although my brother used to live there, haha) as they have been squatting the building, had to walk through a bit of a dark scary estate.

Anyone heard The Cat Empire? My mate just played me them. They're like, latino/ska/other from Australia. Apparently their 2nd album was a bit more pop/latino and they broke into mainstream-ish. But I was listening to their first album it's got a really good vibe, a couple of bits reminded me of OC Supertones but even if you don't like them you should check them out.

I made a kickass wire sculpture guy skanking in my art class. When I bring it home I'll try to get pictures of it. :cool:

I think I'm friends with Cat Empire on Myspace!!!!!11!!


Did you know that the guy from At the Drive In had a ska band called the Dregtones? It's ok music. At the Drive in is was a definate improvement.

The Ordinary Boys do a poor cover of Little Bitch, though not quite as bad as Bus Stop's cover.

I think the reason I never liked Less than Jake is that I think Pezcore sucks and everyone always says their newer albums suck. I still think Pezcore sucks, but whatever album is on my mp3 player is really good. It has History of a Boring Town and Science of Selling Out, both of which are Karaoke songs:)


If you like Ska, you'll probably like Panic at the Disco!

Link me ??? :):):)
Anyways, Im seeing the flatliners tonight. Jelous? i think so.

My summer enrichment jazz band teacher was the lead trumpet player on Catch 22's Keasbey Nights....I dont really like ska that much, but its decent music.

Thats pretty sweet. Keasbey Nights is like one of the best albums in ska IMO.

And on Kith's note, Panic at the Disco! is a pretty sweet band. I heard them for the first time on my friends I-Pod the other day, so it's funny you bring that up.

Saw The Big tonight, BIG HOTTNESS. It was awesome, truly. Good good band. Saw a band called Goldmaster Allstars, who I hadn't even heard of before, but they were ACE!!!!! Had multiple singers, including a reggae legend and a 14 year old kid who had a brilliant voice. Saw Pama International too, very very good, better than I thought they'd be! And Toasters headlined, what more can I say! They were brilliant I was too tired to dance but I tried!!!!! Hah.

That's awesome! Keasbey Nights is such a good album.

Last time I saw the toasters, my leg collapsed underneath me on the next to last song.

I'm the guy in the Strike Anywhere shirt.

so. Im seeing chris murray in feb. For Ska fest, 2 night event.

Yo Kith, I tried looking at that vid but it just ain't working for me. My computer wouldn't play it. Bummer.

Saw a band last week called Left Alone, they were playing mostly punk but with the odd bit of awesome ska in there. They were American, I think they said something about coming from California. Yesterday I saw a band from London called Crack Howard, they were well rough but I reckon if they stick around they will get really good. They played ska and proper punk, a bit like the mix Antimaniax have, with similar vocals (they also sounded a bit like Adequate Seven vocals, I think they take a lot of inspiration from Household Name Records bands). Oh and I saw Kenisia last night, finally. Amazing band, if you like Starpool and other bands like that, they mix a whole group of genres though - disco/soul/rock/skacore/ska, etc.


Ok and a non-ska recommendation for Kith or anyone who likes Kid Dynamite type stuff, I saw Random Heroes play the other day, they were amazing. Also You, Me and the Atom Bomb are excellent, hear them too.

Converted it to .wmv so it should play on any windows system with windows media player.

I watched it. You crazy white kids and your music. Couldn't really spot anyone with a Strike Anywhere shirt though.
