I had 200 videos in my playlist for Youtube and I needed to add another. I didn't really remember this song so I clicked on this one thinking "It'll probably be terrible, and I'll just delete this song to get the space for the new song."
So I clicked on this song. And yea... I didn't delete it. I skanked to it instead.
@ihatethisplace1 Walking bassline, guitars focusing on upstrokes, horn section. That's what ska is. Streetlight is a very punk-themed version with complex musical themes that seem alien to ska. But it's still ska, as far as I can tell, at least in the technical definition. And if Less Than Jake is called ska-punk, Streetlight definitely qualifies.
Okay ill admit, American Ska is dead. It has been for years now. But all that matters is, is it dead to you? Cause it sure as hell isn't dead to me :D
So much win within a little under 3 minutes.... I love the opening line. They take it way too fast live. They need to let the beginning groove like it does here. Awesome.
@misslexii1 i wish id been born ten years earlier be 14 in 2000 i miss the early 2000's i was too young and stupid to appreciate my awesome surroundings
i have a huitar and my friend has an electric guitar but neither of us can play his brother drums decent but doesent have drums i think ima get my girlfrend to play flute in the band though xD
@peeps5611@dXAriseXb@SpeakingOfGreg @ MrBowskii I know they still make music, but I'm talking about when this was actually a big scene. The only shit I hear being played nowadays is pop rap and pop dance music. I feel like Ive gotten the shittiest time so far to be in highschool music-wise.
@LukewarmKoolaid OH i know. I am 15 and SOOOOO wish that i could have been as into music back then so i could have enjoyed all the awesome music even more
@LukewarmKoolaid im lucky to have been growing up when LTJ were in their prime, loved their music from the beginning and they're awesome live, it's good that people still listen to it though!
@MyDoomedAccount I know they do! I was just commenting about how the majority of the popular music made today is either fake (whether the artist didnt write it or its auto-tuned or both usually) or uncreative (theres like three pop songs out this year with the exact same fucking melody thats not even good)
@LoyaltySucks Um, well Ive never heard of that band until just now and the trhee songs Ili stened to seem a bit like every other pop-punk band out there
Love this album, reminds me of good times and every song is superb

For all those whining about Ska being dead or some crap you've got it all wrong.
The U.K just took it back,we've got an abundance of Ska,Ska-punk,Skacore,Ska-reggae,Skadub,ska hip hop. bands tearing it up.
The Skints
Tyrannosaurus Alan
Stand Out Riot
Inner Terrestrials
Suicide Bid
and thats less than a handfull of what we're pumping out.
