True to the roots of ska
Dec 22 2006
Format:Audio CD
The Slackers are a breath of fresh air. Their music is original and invokes the warmth and good-naturedness that, in my mind, is central to ska music. Thisis an absolutely fantastic album and would serve as a great introduction to what ska can be (should be?) when done well. Highly recommended.
Great Album

This is the best Slackers album EVER!! I highly recommend getting this.. Almost all the songs on the album are great. Especially # 16 and 17!
The Slacker's best album yet
Aug 30 2000
Format:Audio CD
It's been common knowledge for some time now that Vic Ruggerio is the best song writer on the ska scene today. Possibly, he was the "Third Wave's" greatest voice, the nineties answer to Don Drummond, Jackie Mittoo and Mike Barson. Now that ska music has lost it's time in the spotlight, and is quickly losing a lot of it's fans to other genres of music, it's important to have a group like the Slackers who still have a passion for playing ska music and playing it well. I guess the "Third Wave" is over, if you believe in all that labeling stuff to begin with. The Blue Meanies' new album has been pinned "Post-Wave" by record execs. This spotlights the Slacker's importance. They are still playing ska music the right way. Get this album.

who's that girl?
the album is by far the best ever from the slackers. with a little under 70 minutes, your time is filled with old school classic ska. my question is who is that girl on the cover?

subtle brilliance!
Warning: this album will sneak up on you! My initial reaction to it (well over a year ago) was somewhat mixed. Read more

The Slackers stumble but don't fall
The Slackers have alwayse and still continue to hold a place in my heart as the best band to come out of ska since it's conception in 1959 Jamaica. Read more

Brilliant music.
The Slackers are truly a gift from the Ska gods! They mimic but do not copy the orignal Jamaican ska sound, and this album is particularly haunting and creative. This is real ska. Read more

Slackers show off work ethic
This CD was incredible from the first note of Manuel, I'm hooked. One of the best CD's last year, gave us a reason to not give up on ska just yet. Read more

By far the best Slackers album to date
This is by far The Slackers most sophisticated album. They combine simple yet powerful aspects of songwriting into their familiar blend of old and new styles of rocksteady. Read more
