1998 really wasn’t that long ago, but after saying the number 2021 out loud, it feels like it happened during another lifetime. To put things in perspective, Billie Eilish was born three years after 1998, and, hell, even FINNEAS was born the year before. Despite the fact that said year was toward the end of […]

Howdy, everyone! I am back again and ready to review some more awesome music that is coming out very very soon. Now, I don’t know about anyone else out there but I would be lying if I said I wasn’t becoming more and more obsessed with ska bands, ska music, and ska covers during quarantine (shout out Ska Tune Network on YouTube). Since I have already said ska a million times in the first 2 sentences of this review, can you take a guess as to who I am reviewing today? Anyone? Bueller? People who thought Less Than Jake would be correct! Their newest album Silver Linings is dropping on December 11th via Pure Noise Records and lucky me, I got to have a sneak-peak.

When you hear that a new ska-punk album is coming out, you […] For more, go to: TheGirlsAtTheRockShow.com (Source)
