i have a tattoo after this song...on my chest..people are always like "are you really rude? thats not nice' im like 'have you ever heard of ska?" "um no" "k then i dont care what you have to say"
aaahhh i remember the bassist came on the stage in a polo shirt and tank top completely sober and the rest of the band came on topless with 4 bottles of stella each :) i love that guy, he looks like the rest of the bands responsible dad :D
every time i see big d play is sounds like dave is singing a little out of tune. i love their new shit but cmon dave, focus on whats going on around you!
I don't qualify them as fourth wave. Third Wave had its parts, from the glorious Toasters rising to the crappy LTJ era now back to Westbound Train and Go Jimmy Go. I think the fourth wave will probably be in the same vain as Westbound Train and GJG with the soul infused ska. Besides it's quite well known most third wave ska is horrible, and the fans tend to be a joke. The best thing about Big D is they transgress the label of ska, playing music for actual rudeboys and the average listener.
hmmm i will have to disagree, you see big D and Street light manifesto is bringing a new sound to ska cause as you said most 3rd wave has this generic sound (reel big fish/chase long beach/LTJ etc....)and this has a different sound and really i think all together a different movement
Streetlight Manifesto has said over and over again they are not a ska band, Big D is just adding dub and skacore elements to third wave. Not to mention the obvious two tone sound.
Fuck you. LTJ kicks ass. The wave of ska shouldn't be classified, I like all kinds of ska, from Frank himself to The Voodoo Glow Skulls. LTJ fans aren't jokes. Your a joke.
EVERYONE SHOULD CHECK THE ORIGINAL: TOP RANKING BY ALTHEA & DONNA

This is the same exact tune to Alton Ellis' "I'm Still In Love".

He's using a Hohner alto melodica. The melody starts on the high E (the second-furthest away white key
E-C-A---ABC-B-G-E
That's the main melody :D

really nice dub song. Adding a good element to older ska and rocksteady. Finally a third wave ska band that doesn't act like band geeks

true so what you are saying is that there are no 4 th wave ska bands yet? not nocking you just wondering your thoughts
guypaintball 3 years ago
I don't believe there is a fourth wave. Most ska bands have regressed back to 2tone or soul.

I think a lot of 3rd wave ska treads a fine line between good ska and shitty punk with trumpets, and LTJ seem to swerve either side of it a lot lol
