It was refreshing to hear a band take a stand. Not many bands have the guts to say no or to directly tell the government, any government, to stop. I love their message and I wish more people would listen to them and understand the message they are trying to send. AND they were GREAT in Pico, I cant wait to see them again :)Abinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134969481939975509.post-5878221629903128912010-11-04T17:31:30.695-04:002010-11-04T17:31:30.695-04:00I'd say a lot of their music is more against J...I'd say a lot of their music is more against Jamaica than against the USdanielhttp://satelitekingston.blogspirit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134969481939975509.post-41263954909587428832010-11-04T16:54:59.497-04:002010-11-04T16:54:59.497-04:00Ive always liked their sound even though alot of t...Ive always liked their sound even though alot of their music seems to be anti US or Western. <br /><br />If you do like their style of music, another band to check out is Skalariak, its similar but toned down just a notch.Bobjr94http://www.fakewrx.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134969481939975509.post-6451782691573773952010-11-03T07:51:23.620-04:002010-11-03T07:51:23.620-04:00Well the comment tide seems overwhelmingly against...Well the comment tide seems overwhelmingly against Ska-P! I think I originally saw them as an extreme left wing version of The Mighty Mighty Bosstones in terms of sound (but not lyrical content). They are not generally my cup of team but since they rarely appear here in the US and are virtually unknown here (outside of the many Spanish speakers here in the US) felt they deserved a post. I may go see them out of curiosity and will post if I do.<br /><br />In the meantime keep the comments coming.Marco On The Basshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05874620674573034354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134969481939975509.post-67433294387694863382010-11-03T00:50:20.038-04:002010-11-03T00:50:20.038-04:00By the way, not only Ska-P play a hopelessly poor ...By the way, not only Ska-P play a hopelessly poor version of ska, but also they happen to be a highly commercial project, not controversial at all in Latin America or Spain...

Ask anyone in their own country: they'll tell you they are a joke.<br />Ska-P really are far from the urban guerrillas they seem to try to portray themselves as. Not the case. Silly lyrics, silly music. <br />But this is obviously not the first time that a band seems o be taken differently in different places. Maybe the language gap helps them after all.Danielhttp://satelitekingston.blogspirit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134969481939975509.post-61142758333337196472010-11-02T22:50:53.870-04:002010-11-02T22:50:53.870-04:00Hi Freddy,

I have read that many people feel that Ska-P portray themselves as anarchist but are are signed to RCA who are a major label and that this is a contradiction.<br /><br />MOTBMarco On The Basshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05874620674573034354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134969481939975509.post-59863301014415679772010-11-02T18:43:47.265-04:002010-11-02T18:43:47.265-04:00I'm from Caracas, Venezuela, and I am of those...I'm from Caracas, Venezuela, and I am of those who do not like at all the Ska P, and not by Ska-Punk sound, but because we actually know are musicians really hypocritical in its stance pamphlet ...

They certainly are not a traditional ska band in look or sound. I think people either love or hate them. <br /><br />MOTBMarco On The Basshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05874620674573034354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1134969481939975509.post-39227697972685997232010-11-02T16:45:50.989-04:002010-11-02T16:45:50.989-04:00HI.
