new big d is amazing.

pedro durruti 04-07-2007 10:41 PM

Did they do more dub? I really liked what they did with Salem whatever whatever..

Ghostfire3 04-08-2007 11:34 AM

I haven't really given their dub stuff a listen. Is it good?

pedro durruti 04-08-2007 03:57 PM

What I've heard, Salem Girls or whatever. There are three different versions I think, and they all differ, but it's not necessary to get all three because they are just remixes basically. Which one is the best, I don't know, but you are probably an album downloader anyways.

Henrik 04-12-2007 07:35 AM

You can't get the official Salem Girls ep any longer anyway, only about 1000 were printed.
I have a copy, but I don't think it's that good. I would definitely listen to their ska-punk stuff before Salem Girls at any day. The best version of the song “Salem Girls” is the original. The second one is a dub version and the third one is instrumental.

I'm looking forward to hearing the new full length.

Leftover Crack
 
If you dont like Choking Victim you should still give leftover crack a try, they are like an improoved version of choking victim

Catchthe22 05-17-2007 06:00 PM

Choking Victim was a few okay songs. Leftover crack, I haven't heard anything worth getting into.

Jessizzle 05-27-2007 06:35 PM

Henrik 05-30-2007 10:25 AM

I've only heard Noise Complaint a few times, and so far it hasn't really got me hooked.
I would like to hear some more though.

cat destroyer 05-30-2007 11:14 AM

Have streetlight put out an official date for their new release yet? I doubt it :(

Kithkin 05-30-2007 03:43 PM

[QUOTE=Shock;14707887]If you dont like Choking Victim you should AVOID leftover crack AT ALL COSTS, they are like a NOT AT ALL improved version of choking victim[/QUOTE]


Actually they're like a version of Choking Victim where the singer is terrible by even Choking Victim standards.

SkaRobotArmy 06-07-2007 02:33 PM

man, LoC is sweet.
also, so is Big D.
Not the BEST ska album since Everything Goes Dumb, but top 3.
Noise Complaint and Shining On got me hooked to buy it.
but the best songs are...
Steady Riot
Souped Up Vinyl
Raw Revolution

the ska punk is subdued but still there, though definately overshadowed by the dub echo which is really cool sometimes, but yea sometimes overused.

also, check out dave mcwanes writing and stuff on his site, some of its pretty cool.

Wow, you guys are all wrong. Leftover Crack is Choking Victim. Stza (Scott Sturgeon) sings for both bands. They all have pretty much the same members but i believe the change of name comes from the death of a band member (due to a drug overdose). In fact now that i think of it, it didnt even start with Choking Victim but with No Commercial Value, follwed by Crack Rock Steady 7 (who's only recordings are on the F-Minus/ Leftover Crack Split, the Leftover Crack songs are actually Crack Rock Steady 7 songs) then it went to Choking Victim. Both bands fall under the genre of "crack rock steady" to which there is a hefty list of bands who fall under this genre. Both bands play their own version of ska-punk with an obvious influence of metal/black metal.

Everyone has to realize neither are a genuinely ska/ ska-punk band. They just have elements of ska/reggae in their music.

Songs with an obvious influence from ska are:
Choking Victim Songs:
Choking Victim
500 Channels
Crack Rock Steady
Five Finger Discount

Leftover Crack:
Baby Punchers
Gang Control
Gay Rude Boys Unite
Crack City Rockers
Born To Die
Drug Song (Originally by Crack Rock Steady 7)

Thats all i can think of off the top of my head.

Its a shame that i come back after a couple years to see a dead thread...
