  • Streetlight ManifestO?! ¬¬" it's remind!

  • don't get me wrong i love this song and i love catch 22. but to me streetlight is what i prefer, but hey i listen to them both.

    it could also be because i listened to streetlight before i even started listening to catch22.

    but their still great.

  • its ska punk..not ska core

  • is this really a big deal?

  • no it isnt a big deal..so thats why I put it plain and simple.

  • this is the furthest thing from hardcore

  • fuck! i just lost the game

  • so did I

  • reminds me of less than jake

  • ugh, barely sounds like ska to me... sounds like blink 182 to me

    everythnig from catch 22 is shit except keasby nights to me, but i should check out alone in a crowd before i say that

  • pretty good, I like streetlight a lot better

  • streetlight is better

  • nah. catch 22 is way better although i also love streetlight. but yea. catch 22 is better

  • i wouldnt call catch 22 skacore, skacore is much heavier usially with evil or dark/twisted/sick lyrics, and its common to have pig squeals and stuff in skacore, c22 aint like that

  • this is fucking good shit dude!

  • Awesome, this is one of my favorites from them. :D

  • this video makes me wish i still had my dart gun

  • Awesome!

  • alone in a crowd is the best c22 album!

  • No, keasbey nights is

  • the only real catch22 album is keasbey nights

  • what about "alone in a crowd"??? every song on that album is fucking amazing!!!

  • look up REEL BIG FISH!! :D

  • Hello I`m looking for bands symilary to Catch 22 or to Street Light. Could someone post me some names? THX in advance!

  • Check out the French band La Ruda Salska, Spanish band Ska-P

  • erm not thaaat similar but theres always the cat empire? reel big fish you probably know...

  • thanks :)

  • reel big fish is a good one but try planet smashers

  • sorry for second post look up voodoo glowskulls too

  • Streetlight manifesto, big d and the kids table, skankin pickle, reel big fish, suicide machines, mustard plug

  • i lost the game

  • is this post kalnoky?

  • yes.

  • yeah

  • Catch 22 is NOT skacore they're ska punk

  • skacore=ska punk, idiot

  • Skacore is hardcore Ska (Voodoo Glow Skulls, Blue Meanies)

    Ska is ska plus punk. (Mustard Plug,Big D)

    retard

  • no ska is ska....ska-punk is ska and punk (chokeing victim, op iv)

  • skacore=ska+scream/schreech vocals

  • Well if that were the case, this isn't skacore - I don't hear any screech or screaming in this song..

  • this definately isnt skacore and i never said it was

  • what album is this song on does anyone?

  • alone in a crowd

  • ITS FUCKIN COOL DUDE!

  • :D

    thats me in the red shirt!!!

    i was sooo little!

  • really???? thats so sick

  • i love streetlight but a good song is Switchblade by SKAzini check it out its a bit more punk though

  • what the fuck is wrong qwit punk

  • oh sorry im not sayin theres anthin wrong with punk, i love it, im just lettin people who may not like it know

    soz bout the misunderstanding ;)

  • The band that did "Switchblade" is actually called Detective Jabsco. I'm assuming you found it on Newgrounds like I did.

  • yeh i found it on newgrounds it said SKAzini?

    is it really Detective Jabsco and if so are they still together?

  • SKAzini is just the guy's Newgrounds name. if you look at his profile it says that the band is Detective Jabsco. Unfortunately the band is no longer together, but they do have an active Myspace page, with "Switchblade" being one of the songs on the profile.

  • oh thanks alot ill check out their myspace

  • why does everyone argue. are you missing the point of ska and reggae its about unity not fighting grow up please people

  • omg i hate when people argue about "whos the better band" they are all amazing so shut up

  • god everybody shut the fuck up

    i like both catch 22 and streetlight a lot

    there both great bands

    streetlight i think is a little better

    but jeez its nothin' to argue about

    shut the fuck up

  • love this song

  • hey whats the intro song?

  • Intro?

  • Wow. This song is amazing. I'm not a huge fan of skacore or anything but the horn arrangements for this song are just so addicting. "catch"y stuff.

  • WOOOoooo! damn good song!!!!

  • this is still a really good song...

  • in my opinion catch 22 with the original members was the #1 ska band for me and many others! i wish they didn't mess things up into two bands

  • I don't think it was entirely messed up, only because streetlight manifesto kicks ass. I couldn't really give 2 shits about the new Catch 22, but streetlight manifesto is the BOMB.

  • You just set me off, man. You MUST be kidding, STREETLIGHT MANIFESTO is the most talented ska band out there, not to mention that without Tomas the band doesn't have meaning in its songs. Streetlight, Gimp, BOTAR > Catch 22 any day (Not that Catch 22 is a bad band, but seriously, Tomas is the heart of all his bands, does that not tell you that when he moves on, they band spirals downward?)

  • are you talkin to me buddy or was that a mistake? because i didn't say anything about Street light manifesto....what i ment by mess things up is go to two bands one pretty good the other catch22 not so much....dinosaur sounds was alright but permanent revolution wasn't good. i wish catch22 was as it was in 1998....nuff said

  • I'm sorry, but YOU must be kidding. Tomas is a joke. All his songs are about someone dying or some "profound message," and his guitar playing is lacking in so many ways.

    Ska is about having fun and coming together. Unity, it's not just a song by Operation Ivy, but it is the message that Ska is supposed to spread. All of his songs are about depressing situations or how Hollywood idiots influence us, where is the Ska in that? Nowhere.

    Also, Catch 22 has gotten better since he left.

  • Dear Morons,

    Please stop argueing (is that how you write it?) and try to listen to the MUSIC.

    When you concentrate on the music, it's not hard to conclude that Catch 22 indeed is better off without Mr. Kalnoky (why does everyone call him Tomas, like he knows you).

    But! Streetlight's music is from, my point of view (that's what you guys always forget to mention, you are convinced that whatever you think is right), way better ;)

    Morons!

    Have Fun today

    Boeloe

    That's all, because I'm out of cha

  • I do listen to the music, and my comment was all about the music. Maybe if you were to take the time to read and re-read the comment then you would understand. Guitar playing, lyrics, and the message the music sends. All are parts of the music, which is what I commented on.

    Stop acting so superior. Simply by calling us morons you are, in fact, causing more arguing.

    Have fun with that.

  • tomas isn't a joke

    your a fuckin joke for thinking that

  • i disagree i think reel big fish has got way more on streetlight... but streetlight really is fucking good.. but i dont think many have the balls to argue against reel big fish.

    not only do they kickass .. they manage themselves now.. which WAY respectable.

  • this band kicks ass and is just like goldfinger and Reel big fish ^^

  • no its alot better than those 2 combined

  • without a doubt

  • Hahas theys sucks dos theys?

    I think your a retard (musically retarded)

  • naw man

    i think u suck giraffe dick cos u need to shut the fuck up

    i think yer fav band is avril lavegne nd hillary duff

    OMGOSHH yer so gay

    -________-

  • not the same without kalnoky

  • nobody cares about yer fagget bullshit

    stfu

  • These were the days....back when Catch 22 didn't suck. Thank god Kalnoky started Streetlight and kept some damn good ska alive.

  • I have an evan harder one Streetlight Catch 22 or The Toasters (people have gotten Killed in this argument

  • You fucking dumbass, if you payed attention to anything, you would notice that the lead singer, and trumpet player from Catch 22 are the lead singer and trumpet player for Streetlight Manifesto. They didn't steal these songs, the singer just redid them when he left Catch22, listen to the end of As the Footsteps Die Out Forever. Without Catch22 SLM would be nothing.

  • without tomas catch 22 would be nothing. by lead singer of catch 22 im assuming tomas.. and by trumpet im assuming you mean trombone.. YOU KNOW THAT SHINY THING YOU PULL ON.. you pay attention and the trombone player from former catch 22 mike is now in streetlight with tomas still.. jamie egan from former catch was in streetlight for a while too. tom rerecorded his own music under streetlight and latter catch rerecorded his songs on the live album. and youre dumb.

  • its acutally at the end of 1234 1234

    but that doasen't matter

  • catch 22 kicks ass

  • yeah, TOMAS KALNOKY does kick ass. =) and hes not here so ... it only semi kicks ass.

  • 22. Well they are all ska they are different ends of the ska spectrum. It's not bad its just different.

  • I think the reason that so many people get mad about this is that Catch 22 continue to use the name Catch 22, even after the original Catch 22 line-up broke up. Many think they should have changed their name. I am not passing judgment on this band but this is not what many people think when they see Catch 22. They expect to here fast, lyrically strong, ska-punk songs. Well this new incarnation is good it is more ska-pop. I always use the example of Less than Jake, Streetlight Manifesto and Catch

  • amen... the coolness of using the name catch 22 is totally a tomas inspired thing. Hes fond of tons of literature and is knowledgeable about it. i wonder how hard they try everytime they play his songs.. its sad i saw them perform the song keasbey nights before tomas did. and tomas did it the right way... its a complete story now. catch 22 only has 1/3 the talent of streetlight. and that 1/3 is tomas contributions to the band before he left. and mike too SOPRANO KICKS ASS!

  • I love how much you guys argue over this band. I've been listening to them for seven years now, and I must say that even Catch 22 laugh at you guys. They told me that they are glad that you prefer to argue over who did what like politicians instead of actually loving music. You "ska fans" are so shallow, and one sided. Just looking at streetlight manifesto fans is evident enough of this. They praise and worship their musical gods just as "emo" kids do. But who looks past their own views?

  • if it means anything... it doesnt sound like the like music... thats why i think they suck not because the arguments its just funny they play someone elses songs.. the name is one things but someones musics another even the record label rereleased the album in streetlights name. I think this band has like 3 good songs and ones a cover of the beach boys. other than that its like dissenttv said "shitty fucking cry babby emo music" achieved that with "rocky"

  • Are your seriously 23?

  • dissent tv should open your fuckin mind with a .45 bullet fuckin idiot

  • wwait your saying i should open my mind to shitty fucking cry babby emo music? no thanks dude ill save that garbage for the likes of you :)

  • Ironic, you are so against the mainstream, yet you use a mainstream site to get your message across? I think that the "system" has the better of you my friend. Your just another coagulation of people who think they'll make a difference while walking along the footsteps of the individuals they fight against.

  • ska>emo

  • You guys are just ignorant anti-wikipedia idiots, Everything in here is true and official, why would someone somewhere think and say something false

  • ok almost everything on wikipedia is false

    its open to the public and anyone can edit an article on wikipedia so theres alot of stupid idiotic stuff on there and reggae has not been around since Africa has been around....thats one of the dumbest things I've ever heard

  • HEAR HEAR!!! AFRICA?!

  • reggae is friggin jamaican....what freaking morons

  • Is this what Catch has become? This music feels so awkward. Like something I would have listened to when I was in grade school.

  • I know man, they're turning into freakin' Smash Mouth

  • actually it is a fact that reggae got its roots from ska

  • lufahh leave...dont come back k?

  • whats ska?

  • you bein' serious?

  • This.

  • Some kid asked if ska was emo, so i punched him the face and said "no thats ska"

    rock on Catch 22

  • right on man, this girl said ska was emo, i wouldve hit her but she was a girl and that would be silly

  • without the horn ska sounds bad

  • SKA!!!! this is ska...

  • i love giving up giving in by them because i liek it alot better wiht our the horn

  • streetlight didn't add horns to it.

  • well, good song. i personally like both streetlight and catch 22, AND less than jake, some of the best bands ever. i love ska! =)

  • Why does it always have to be the one or the other, why not love both catch and streetlight?? BTW streetlight manifesto is currently touring together with reel big fish, so pbfanatic321 will probably just see half the show hehe :) no just kidding, I respect everyones opinion...

  • dude catch 22 is crap, i dont like em anymore because thomas left, hes now the lead singer in STREETLIGHT MANIFESTO THE BEST BAND ALONG WITH REAL BIG FISH AND LESS THAN JAKE!!!! YEAAA, catch 22 sounds so gay now, thomas has the best voice

  • lol, its reel big fish :D not real

  • go to hell, anyone who says less than jake is better than catch obvioulsy doesn't know ska that well. And i dont think you saw both catch and streetlight live to make a compairson. catch puts on a way better live show. i love streetlight, but catch is just as good

  • this is still a really good song...

  • dude how is catch 22 sca core? i preatty sure their just ska

  • skacore? what the heck is that?

    yeah, i agree with the dude above me.

    just ska.

    plain ska.

    nothing more.

    ska.

    SKA.

  • no dis is not ska, unless they are jamaican guys in the 60's with hats and stuff...they dont look like dat...

  • they dont have to be jamacian to be ska, even tho it orginiated from there, its still just SKA!

  • get off your high horse dude...it's called 3rd wave. i love the skatalites and desmond decker as much as the next person, but music evolves, get over it and enjoy some new ska...and hey...at least its not Big D

  • ska is older than reggae, stupid child, just learn history:Although strongly influenced both by traditional African and Caribbean music and by American rhythm and blues, Reggae owes its direct origins to the progressive development of ska and rocksteady in 1960s Jamaica. wikipedia

  • reggae has been around since africa has been around

  • so forever? please think before you start writing something

  • ska is influenced by reggae, dumbass.

  • I hate these arguements, but you got it backways.

  • Um, do you know how much shit is on Wikipedia?

  • true dat!

  • = ]

  • WHO GIVES A FUCK JUST ENJOY THE MUSIC!

  • Seriously.

  • mate ya dun;t have to be jamaican to be ska, this is ska as fuck dude.

  • that blonde lead singer is my uncles brother...lol i know nobody is going to believe me but its true..so idk what that makes him to me? cause its my uncle married in...but yeah lol i see him all the time..hes not in a band anymore :/

  • have u met him ?

  • yeah i actually was with him for christmas a few weeks ago

  • damn man im so jealous haha

  • i am too i am very much too

  • it's still technically your uncle; your uncle's your uncle cause he's your dads brother in law, which just makes your uncle's brother his brother in law too. but nice :) he rocks.

  • lmao thats funy!!

  • haha

  • skank or die bitches ^^

    whiiiiiieeeh <33

  • yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

  • Catch 22 is a great band ! old school SkaCore !

  • la vergaaaaaaaaaaa

  • personally I dont mind Dinosaur Sounds, because it sticks to the originality of Catch and ska as much as it can without kalnoky but the newer besides Dino Sounds I think has moved to far from ska

  • Streetlight's redo of Keasbey Nights is better than the original, but Catch-22 is still awesome.

  • I believe that Alone in a Crowd, could possibly be Catch 22's best album. It's my favorite at least.

  • i think keasby nights was better

    no1 try beat me up on the internet.........but.........i like dinasaur sounds the best out all catch22's albums and better than anything made by streetlight

  • dinosaur sounds = win :3

  • yea i have to agree as much as I love streetlight it is a little better

  • hahaha. wow. i'm in this video. i can't believe this video actually aired.  so long ago. ha! fun times fun times.

  • slighty faster eh?

  • keasky nights was/is fuckin awesome, alone in a crowd is awesome, after that it kinda went tits up for catch 22

  • Listen to Streetlight Manifesto if you like Catch 22's old stuff. The lead sing for Catch 22's old stuff is the singer for Streetlight now, and its just as fast and upbeat as this.

  • HAHAH for reals! Well at least we can all say Streetlight Manifesto is Better then CATCH 22 new stuff

  • Well if you are going by talent, VARITY, originality, and musicianship, then no. But by popularity among "ska fans", then yes.

  • Well i mean the guitarist was pretty much what made CATCH-22 good, i mean once he left the sound kinda changed for Catch22. Streetlight stuff is better then Catch22's new stuff but not as good as KEASBEY NIGHTS.

  • why does anyone give a fuck about who's who, it's all good music... to hell with you loyalty concerned douche bags

  • this guys are awsome!

  • i liked their old stuff more. Remember Keasbey Nights?? That was a great album. I cant put a finger on it but they have changed alot since then and i dont like it:[

  • Well, a good half of the band is different, including the song writer/guitarist/singer.

    Kalnoky's writing was one of the driving forces behind Catch's awesomeness.

  • thomas left the band, listen to streetlight if you want more of the catch you remember, they are born a new in streetlight manifesto, who I can honestly say i like better, but catch 22 is still good, but not AS good

  • OMFG wat a shyt song point the blame picture frame what the hell?:S wow it ryms but makes completely no sense. do they fink ther rockers ? O.o

  • do you think you know how to talk properly? you're like, the smartest kid on youtube.

    with down sydnrome.
