Welcome to Gaia! ::

The only song I've heard by these rudies was "History of a Boring Town" nothing else... I noticed that it didn't have a big horn part in it.

I have only heared a little of there stuff, but I plan on seeing them live, and I hoped that they would still be some what ska. Some of there newer(I think) stuff sounds very...... not ska? And even there old stuff is not really all to skaish. Still, they are good, but I hate it when bands start out as ska start pulling away, even if I did not know them all that well.

i just saw them play tonight, and they still kick a**, half of their set was from losing streak and hello rockview there 2 best albums

i loved 'em before they sold out.

I've always felt that they've always been a very strong ska band, in the past few years with recent albums that has, however faded for a more pop-punk sound a dimmed focus on their horns and the upbeat. However, the reason some people assume they have overpowering guitar over their horn parts, which in my oppinion are actually very good if you actually hear them, is because Vinnie and the producers they work with do not understand how to properly mix their music, and thusly it's mixed like a normal band, and the guitar becomes the focus instead of a mix between teh guitar and bass with equal, and light drums with the horns not becoming over poweringly loud, but to the point that when they play you can hear them very well. But, that's just me.
