  • around 1:25 reminds me of "The Question" CD cover. Maybe it's supposed to, considering this songs on there. Whatever, the Slackers fucking own.

  • i ordered an Adolescents shirt from Interpunk and i got a free Slackers sticker.

    The Slackers kick ass.

  • Felt very priviliged here in Rotterdam last Friday. The Slackers are a MUST SEE band. Ska from the Bronx, love it

  • I'm going to see them friday in Rotterdam...can't wait!!

  • Saw these boys in Toronto about 6yrs ago. Fantastic night, great fun to watch. Whole place was hopping !!!!!

  • The slackers are the best thing that's ever happened.

  • amazing band

    amazing song

    saw them in NYC last week

    BEST EVER!

  • Great song.

    I gotta say tho, the video kinda sucks. Low budget is cool, but the video as a whole wasn't that great. I feel they tried to be all "artsy" with it, and it didn't move me.

    Hire a professional next time, boys.

  • Oh, but you gotta love the shots from the Maple Leaf!!! Oak St., Uptown New Orleans!!! This band never forgets Ska's roots.

  • Ska's Roots is Jamaica man

  • Ska's roots is everywhere

  • Ska's roots are everywhere.

  • Hell yea dude and Jamaica is not the start of ska ska is a mix of so many different styles of music that it cant be cited at any one place but the most noticable part of ska is its blues feel and musical styles.

  • I agree that Ska's roots are in Calypso and Mento, which are forms of Caribbean Folk Music as well as American Rhythm and Blues, but Ska itself was born in Jamaica. One of Ska's notable attributes is that is Jamaica's first indigenous style of music.

  • Wonderfull^^

  • Sweetness. I'm seeing them next week. I'm so stoked!

  • You suck!!! Actually...I hope you had a great time. I would die to see them!

  • It's well worth it. The show was awesome! The only complaint I have is that I wanted them to play for longer. Can't get enough Slackers.

  • I never noticed before, is that Vic Rice at 1:10?

  • i saw them last night and wow amazing! really cool band.

  • haha I don't care who is fucking who, but I NEED to take time out to say... holy fucking shit... this band kills me... the very finest music ever..... I live the UK, so I love ska... I need more.....shit I love the Slackers....

  • At age 53, this is one of my top FIVE bands of all-time. I've seen them all from Stevie Wonder,theStones,Police,DMB,Ra­ncid,RBF,LTJ,NOFX, Sly&Family,Graham, etc. Vic & Q-Maxx & every member are such accomplished musicians. While standing outside the Troc in Philly w/ the kids, Vic and others came by playing the banjo to seranade the crowds - how cool was that! At WARPED's post-BBQ party, his Little Blue Pills side project. THEE best raggae-ska band in the Western Hemisphere! Cheers, DadGerry
