Rocket Steadman Release New Single, “Lockdown”
Right on the heels of their previous single that I reviewed, “Kitchen Light”, Rocket Steadman are back with a new skalicious single, “Lockdown” both of which are off their forthcoming album And We Have Lift Off and makes me what to skank and pick it up as much as the last one!
Asfixia Social Release New Single: Traffic Lights w/ Guest Vocals from D.O.A.’s Joey Shithead!
Asfixia Social bring it all to the table and fucking let it rip with a mix of ska, rap, hardcore, punk, funk, dub all flavored with the Brazilian music of their country. And if that weren’t enough, “Traffic Lights” even has some rad ass guest vocals from Joey Shithead from D.O.A. one of my favorite hardcore punk bands!
Rocket Steadman Release New Single: “Kitchen Light”
So what do we have here? An eight-piece ska band with dope horn melodies played with punk intensity?
pulses. Release New Single “Them Phones” (feat. JER)
It’s high energy and has a grab bag of all of your punk and ska sub genres in one fucking song.
Mojiganga Releases New Single: Besos and Cervesas
The opening riffs and horn harmonies are catchy as fuck! Love the skacore growling vocals followed by the more punk melodic vocals. Oh yeah. These dudes are from 1995 when I graduated high school, and I would have sooooo been into that shit.
Gaba Groove’s new ska punk single, “Fire” premiered today…just in time for their show at the Whiskey with The Dickies, so give it a listen and get out to that show to sing along.
While not breaking any ska punk ground, the song does lay back a bit more into that reggae vibe which as fun vibe to the song. I could totally see this being on an Asian Man Records comp back in the 1990s.
Sotah’s Newest Ska Single “Sotah” Brings Sad Ska to Life
The moment that upstroke occurred it reminded me instantly of “Bicycle Seat” by The Daycare Swindlers, but from there any comparison disappeared…I mean yes it’s a well crafted song with catchy hooks and more that are similar, but “Sotah” is also tinged with a melancholy that is a stark juxtaposition with the usual automatically upbeat feeling of ska.
