This is a ska song
You know it’s not long
And if you think we should be skanking then you’re not wrong
But more important than the moves
Are the values that you groove
Now with your sisters and your brothers sing along
How can I put this without coming off as a prick?
I’m gonna lose my shit if I see another meme about a goddamn mozzarella stick
There’s nothing wrong with putting on your checkered Vans and rocking out to Reel Big Fish
I’m not belittling the things in this cruel world that bring us joy and happiness
But when we’re done singin’ about how everything sucks
I think we got a few things that we need to discuss
Until that time we sing
This is a ska song
You know it’s not long
And if you think there’s room for racists then you’re dead wrong
It’s not enough to disapprove
We gotta fight to make a move
Now with your sisters and your brothers sing along
This is a ska song
You know it’s not long
And if you’re telling women how to live then get gone
You can’t decide what she can choose
You can get fucked if you refuse
Now with your sisters and your brothers sing along
This is a ska song
It’s gone on too long
And if by now you still aren’t skanking you still belong
Cause more important than the moves
Are the values that you groove
Now With your sisters and your brothers sing along
More important than the moves
Are the values that you groove
Now with your sisters and your brothers stand strong
These reimagined versions showcase the band's creativity and talent while reinforcing their solid song writing. The songs may have slowed down, but the arrangements are never thin. Strings on "Scratch Me Up"?? hauntingly sexy! Fadarude
The Minneapolis band add a horn section, a running surrealist allegory about walls, and an occasional nod to the elegiac to their electroshocked post-punk. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 4, 2024
On their ferocious self-titled debut, the Australian punks pit d-beat percussion against gnarled, metallic melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 3, 2024
