yeah the new album does sound a little more rockish, their older stuff is a lot more light hearted and has more ska feel to it

You're right, this is a dumb question.

uh... No. No it's not.

Ska is a type of music originating in Jamaica in the 50s that was more of a variation of reggae, but now it has much more of a punk influence and you can dance with fury to it.

used to be into this stuff and saw big D, catch 22, less than jake etc. RX bandits were the best live out fo all, but then I found real music which is based on the instruments not the lyrics. call me a hippie or what you want, but good improv is where it's at.
