They're one of those bands where every record has one or two songs that I really love, but I still can't get too excited about the idea of a new Aquabats album (especially after that last one...)

Have there been many great ska records this year? I know there's a new Bosstones album...

New Interrupters album is great except for the song with Rancid singing.

But now it's up on Google Play/iTunes. I didn't really update about it, but I'm digging it a lot. Also, We Are The Union has their new one coming out soon I think.

Yeah Interrupters' Fight The Good Fight is my pick for best ska record of the year. I love the Bosstones but the new album just isn't sustaining my interest. The Mad Caddies album has some great stuff on it, IMO, but not a start-to-finish winner, and does a cover album even count? They did make a Propagandhi song listenable, which is impressive.

Wow lotta bad opinions in the last few posts. The Constant is the best song the Bosstones have had post hiatus. It took seeing it live to realize this though. Post hiatus albums go in this order: While We're At It, Pin Points, Magic of Youth. If you disagree, you're probably as silly as that guy things Propagandhi songs aren't listenable. Mad Caddies Against Me! cover was also cool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j37whxmIfYU Oh and Throwdown is gonna be announced tomorrow

It's really hard for me to say any post hiatus song is better than any of Sister Mary, Waster Summers, I Wrote It, Death Valley Vipers, Pretty Sad Excuse, or They Will Need Music but I haven't heard any of the new album live yet so who knows

Who’da thunk it? Anyway, you’re all wrong. Bosstones are shot, the Caddies and the Interrupters are the best albums of last year and Tokyo Skapara are awesome.

Today is the 20th Anniversary of Hello Rockview. To mark the occasion, may I suggest we spend the next two pages arguing if it or Losing Streak are better, only to have everyone be wrong when it's revelaed that the answer is actually Borders and Boundaries

For me it's Hello Rockview. I get that the scene tends to like less polished recordings, and there is some really great stuff on Losing Streak and I love it too, but Hello Rockview is great almost from start to finish. I could do without Motto and Richard Allen George... but I like every other track on that album. About half of Losing Streak is great, but I'm not into the other half. I've had Borders and Boundaries for years, but I don't actually know it that well. I could only identify about 3 songs on it if pushed.

Borders and Boundaries is Magnetic North, Look What Happened, and Gainesville Rock City. Those three songs are amazing but the rest is mediocre filler.

losing streak kicks rear end, but i haven't listened to less than jake in so long if i heard any track from hello rockview right now i'd probably get the same level of nostalgia rush either way ska seems like it's been in a rough spot the last couple years, huh? would love to hear some new, young bands working with the sound.

Anthem is a better album than Borders but Hello Rockview is the best, the absolute fuckin rush I get when I hear "last one out of liberty city burn it to the ground" and the bass kicks in will never stop

All I know about Hello Rockview is it has that Scott Farcus song on it which is also on a split 7" with J Church that I own. I also for some reason have that LtJ pizza box and have never played the record in it and don't really want the thing.

Is it just the box and the record, or does it have all the extra stuff that came with it? (magnet, pizza menu lyric sheet, etc)

(magnet, pizza menu lyric sheet, etc) It's the box, a record, the guest check, the napkin, the menu/lyric sheet, and the magnet. Number 341/1000. "Extra Cheese" The top of the box is a bit pressed in. None of the perforated tabs are removed or punched through. There is a price tag on the upper corner of $9.98/ If you or anyone is serious I can post photos.
