Don't Lose Touch - Against Me! Video 2008-11-10 07:45:00 The first song I've heard from Against Me! was Baby I'm an Anarchist, which I found a bit funny. I expect nothing less from a band whose first album was entitled Reinventing Axl Rose. But behind all the funny, Against Me! is a solid punk rock band.Formed in 1997 in Naples, Florida, Against Me! has gone through several record labels including Plan It X Records, Sabot Productions, and Fat Wreck Chor
Prince Buster, Suggs and Georgy Fame - Madness/Enjoy Yourself LIVE! 2008-11-05 08:06:00 Prince Buster
is another Jamaican reggae and ska legend that still holds influence even today. But as with all great names, Prince Buster had it rough before making his mark.Born Cecil Bustamente Campbell, Prince Buster was once an amateur boxer and a bouncer to Clement Dodd's sound system business. He got his first break when he produced a record for Folkes Brother titled Oh Carolina, a song that Read more:Madness

Green Day LIVE - Dominated Love Slave 2008-10-30 12:17:00 Green Day is probably one of the most commercially successful punk band of my generation. Formed in 1987, they have sold over 65 million records worldwide and have played countless festivals.Whatever your personal opinion is of Billie Joe and the gang, there's no denying that Green Day was once a kick-ass punk band. Try listening again to 39/Smooth and Kerplunk and you'll see what I mean. Like mos Read more:Dominated

Interview: The Ramones (1980) 2008-10-23 16:29:00 Here's a clip from a TV show from the 80's called Count Down featuring an interview with The Ramones. Also, a performance of Rock & Roll High School, not live, but a ton of fun nevertheless.
The Skatalites - Guns of Navarone LIVE!! 2008-10-23 09:13:00 I can't believe I haven't posted any Skatalites yet! Oh well, here's my favorite song of theirs. But first...
To sum up The Skatalites' history in a few sentences will be an injustice. They are THE ska legends, having been formed in as early as 1964. The founders of The Skatalites read like the who's who of ska:
Tommy McCook
Rolando Alphonso
Lloyd Brevett
Lloyd Knibb
Lester Sterling
Don Drummond
We Will Fall Together Video by Streetlight Manifesto 2008-10-22 16:12:00 Streetlight Manifesto
's sound can be easily distinguished among their peers. Their brand of ska combines numerous elements, making their sound unique.
Streetlight Manifesto is made up of past members of other ska bands, including Catch 22 and One Cool Guy. Tomas Kalnoky in particular, was the singer/songwriter and guitarist of Catch 22, leaving the band after their debut album for personal reason

The band also established their own record label, BiB Records, to help other ska bands be heard.Here's Bim Skala Bim with Pete Needs
a Friend video.
Destination Venus Video - The Rezillos 2008-10-21 10:18:00 The Rezillos plays a healthy mix of new wave and punk. Formed in Edinburgh in 1976, The Rezillos' image is more on 80's glam than punk, thus setting them apart. As of this writing, they still continue to play live although they've managed to change lineups a couple of times.
Here's The Rezillos with DestinationVenus

Sublime - Saw Red LIVE!! 2008-12-03 08:01:00 I first heard of Sublime
back in 1998. After hearing Santeria at least three rimes a day on the radio I decided to give them a try. I looked long and hard to get an album of theirs, any album. I landed on an obscure record shop and got Second-hand Smoke. It wasn't what I was expecting.Sublime's Second-hand Smoke sounded weird at first, at least for me. Yea it's punk enough, there's a bit of ska an
Gogol Bordello - Not a Crime Video 2008-12-02 09:02:00 Hell yea! This is probably my favorite GogolBordello
song, and is a constant in my current playlist. It has everything I like with Gogol: a barrage of instruments, short catchy phrases, and a whole lotta energy. Let's take a closer look at the meaning of Not a Crime shall we?At first one would think the song is about drugs, its legalization etc., specifically marijuana. I know that's what I thoug Read more:Gogol Bordello

Melbourne is a tropical London
