A few months have past since its release, but I finally decided to pick up Streetlight Manifesto's latest album title Somewhere in the Between. I knew they came out with a new album awhile back but forgot about later on. I actually remembered about it while browsing for new music videos online. Long story short, I got the album and absolutely love it.

I've been a Mad Caddies fan since their first album Quality Soft Core. That was back in 1997 and since then they've released five full length albums and not one of them has disappointed me. This includes their latest album titled Keep It Going. Now this album was released back in May of this year, but like I stated in my last music review, so many of my favorite bands are releasing new stuff, that it's hard to keep up. But I've now been listening to this album for a good month, and I love it.

They're back and as good as ever! One of my favorite ska bands just released another album hilariously titled Monkeys for Nothin' and The Chimps for Free. Yes, I am talking about Reel Big Fish. With song titles on this album like Another F.U. Song, Party Down, and Everybody's Drunk I knew this was going to be a good album. And after listening to it for a week solid now, I can safely say this album rocks!

On August 4th my favorite ska bands are coming together to put on the greatest ska show of all time! Ok, maybe not, but it'll be the best ska show I've ever seen. How do I know this? Well we're talking about Less Than Jake, Reel Big Fish, Streetlight Manifesto, and Against All Authority here. There's no doubt in my mind. I already bought my tickets because this show will probably sell out. I won't be pissed off this time when I don't buy tickets in advance and the show ends up selling out (damn you NOFX/Strike Anywhere concert!!). This time I'm prepared.

In a recent Rolling Stone magazine they had an interview with AFI's lead singer Davey Havok. I used to be a fan of AFI maybe five years ago, but now I don't like their music anymore. Anyways, in this interview they asked lots of personal questions to help his fans get to know him on a more personal basis. One of the questions they asked him was, "Is there any kind of music that annoys the shit out of you?" To which his response was, "I remember what was called ska-punk [...] That drove me crazy." Read the entire interview here.

Woo!  I'm hyped.  Tonight we skank and rock and mosh.  I'm going to a concert tonight.  It's going to be an awesome show.   Reel Big Fish, Streetlight Manifesto, and MxPx.  I'm mainly going to see Reel Big Fish and Streetlight Manifesto, but MxPx might be a nice little bonus.  I haven't listened to MxPx for over 10 years now.  I didn't even know they were still around.

Sorry for the lack of posts lately.  I went away this past weekend and really haven't had too much to talk about.  But I did find some new videos for NOFX and Reel Big Fish (RBF).  I like music videos, especially for punk and ska bands.  It's nice seeing the people in the band and how they turn a song into a video description.
