Here is my brothers old Ska/Punk/Metal band XD, they were actually really popular in the local scene and then they broke up because everyone just got pissed at each other

If you like it I can post the whole demo if I can find it.

EDIT:

Not sure if you ever heard of NinjaSpy, they are like Ska Metal. Its actually not bad.

 

Wow. That's an awesome sounding band. Hook me up with a demo

Also what area are they/you from?

I'll have to check out NinjaSpy

 

Sublime and Slightly Stoopid

 

Yup, once I find one somewhere in the house I will upload it for you, we (my brother and family and his old band) are from New York around Albany/Troy.

 

has anyone not heard of them?

 

Okay, here's my round

The Upgrades - Nothing

Fandangle - I'm High

Propaghandi - Ska Sucks

Danny Winn - It Ain't a Party 'till the Ska Band Plays

A Loss for Words - Hot Hand in a Dice Game

Life Alert - What's Wrong With Me?

Dude are you for real?! Any reunion shows coming up? I gotta hit that up

 

Why? You live in the area?

But no, there is no Reunion, they did a reunion 4 years ago I think and there was a lot of people that went to it. After that they just kind went their separate ways. They are all still friends except for my brother (the drummer) and the singer.

 

Yeah New Jersey and I go to a ton of NY shows

 

Ohh nice, but yeah, theres no reunion planned unfortunately I always loved listening to them practice when they were still around.

Random story time: One time my brother was in the store and some kid ran up to him and he was like "Whoa! Your the drummer for KingSize!" My brother was like "Shit, people actually listen to us?" The kid said "Yeah! My friends and I always go to your shows whenever we can, we love you guys!" My brother was like "Sweet thanks! At least we know we have fans out there." They were pretty popular back when they were around.

 

Cool story bro =p

I actually enjoyed it..

As for reunions, if they're planning on any hit me up for booking. I'll hook them up with a solid gig.

 

I like the direction this thread is going..

 

Who doesn't knows Reel ********?

 

They're still awesome. I saw them last year

 

I agree. Saw them in like December and July?

Saw them free a couple months ago with The Supervillains and The English beat in NYC.

Good fight on all those bands.

I only don't know the last video which I still have to watch

EDIT: Good sound on that last vid

I saw Less Than Jake 3 times. Planet Smashers last weekend. Bosstones like last May. Streetlight in around December. They're also playin next week. Catch 22 was my first concert.. Mustard Plug is my favorite band and I saw them in May I believe. Saw Goldfinger once with Less Than Jake. Op Ivy isn't around anymore =(

 

Can anybody post some good "known" ska bands?
I only know Madness, Reel ******** and Slighty Stoopid tbh.
/shame.

 

Well that's kind of an oxymoron..

Check out Hub City Stompers, Mustard Plug, Buck-O-Nine, and We Are The Union on their respective myspaces.

 

Hey, I got the demo on my computer, I was going through my old Mix CD's from when I was like 10 or 11 for the lulz and I had the demo on there.

I'll upload it for you tomorrow as the computer that I'm using right now doesn't have it on.

Also, ever heard of Operation Ivy?
