because they are raw as gently caress. Scrambles is the most badassed, Vacation is the most polished, Adults is a combo of the two.

bowmore posted:Adults is the most ska punk of all the bomb stuff (I think) Nah Get Warmer is. Adults is halfway between that crazy piano driven still kinda experimental stuff that Scrambles perfected and the straight up indie garage punk of Vacation.

Neither Adults or Get Warmer have much that is like 1997 ska. I think Get Warmer is more punk... The reckless weird bullshit gets more controlled from that album on. The only song I really love on that album is Get Warmer. Wheat Loaf posted:I'm unfamiliar with the musician you're all talking about, so I must ask a) what sort of style does he have; and b) where would be a good place to start if I wanted to listen to him? They released everything for free/donation on quote/unquote http://quoteunquoterecords.com/albums.htm I'd recommend Sweet Home Cannada first, because that's the one my friend showed me on the bus when I was 16. It's weird but if you find it interesting stick with it. http://quoteunquoterecords.com/qur003.htm Band has a lot of depth and didn't release anything boring. e;Really the most ska/punk album is Others!

Stop trying to make cassettes come back, bands. They aren't the new vinyl. Also I guess LTJ is playing a free show at Mohegan Sun tomorrow so I guess I'm gonna go and get shitfaced and dance then yell at slot machines

Rewinding the tape back into the cassette with a pencil after the player eats it is not fun. And by "have always been happening" I think you mean like "not since the early 2000s at the latest and some lame bands have been trying to make them come back but they're lame and should go away forever"

early 2000s was 13+ years ago, and tapes fully died in the late 90s thus always around not sure what the issue is with tapes especially in the ska thread (a dead genre)

Last night I tried to guilt Jeff into playing one more song by telling him about how I got in an accident on the way to the last BtMI show. It didn't work but he was a super nice dude anyway and seemed genuinely glad I didn't get hurt. Jeff owns.

I hate that so many bands are releasing cassettes cis they may as well just be asking for me to donate to them - I can’t play the cassettes, and if a band doesn’t have any CDs or download links available it’s like they’re actively trying to get me to not listen to their music. That being said, I instantly bought the Aquabats tape just cis it seems like a hard to find pickup. I have no idea how I’m going to listen to it. Time to hit up the local Good Will, I guess.

Can you seriously even find 5 examples of something that was only released on tape and not on CD or web?

I've been listening to the Scofflaws recently. I think they're pretty good; like the Toasters, they have a kind of 2 Tone sound which I really enjoy. What is there that's similar? The Pietasters were recommended to me previously, so I've been thinking about trying them. How about Bim Skala Bim? They seem to be the right sort of age to be a similar thing.
