It doesn't matter how many years they are passing. This song will always bring me back to when I saw them at Boomtown for the first time.... Incredible and unforgettable feeling. ❤
The bass & drums in this are amazing. The rhythm section of a band can be totally make or break for how good they are - these guys are so good and probably go unnoticed half the time
Love the fact the younger generations are still making quality music, mixing contemporary styles with Reggae vibes , absolutely love it . If the fact that Marcia is beautiful draws you in ,all good but her vocals are at least as good as her looks ,this band together are very ,very good .
I saw this band on the Sunday of Reading Festival 2012, I was just walking past and heard reggae and had to go into the tent! I met this girl skanking away in the crowd, just loving it, I went up to her and we started jamming together, we walked away from the gig sweaty and chatting about reggae we liked. I spent about 2 hours with her, then I never saw her again, but this is why I love festivals! No pressure, everyone's there for music and to have a good time and we're all better people for it.
Came to check these guys out for the first time as I heard they were touring with Less Than Jake in October, and wow, what a first impression! Love it, sounds so fresh, but also reminds me of The Specials, one of my favourite bands. Just awesome
I just saw you guys in SLC, and I am SO happy to have seen you. You sound SO F***ing good live! This is super awesome, but the energy that you put out on stage, and the moment was something very special to me. I’m a fan for as long as you keep doing it and beyond. Thank you!
Just saw them in Cincinnati with Tiger Army and Flogging Molly. They have been stuck in my head ever since. That sound guy didn't do them justice. Although I'll give them the fact it was the 2nd show of the tour. But outstanding live performance. I'd definitely see them again.
Saw these when I went to see You me at six, I heard a few songs of there's before I went, but I didn't expect them to be as good as they were live! They impressed me so much that I'm going to see them again in October! I actually can't wait! :')
I saw The Skints when they supported Reel Big Fish in 2011; and they are the best support I've seen to date, and og my god, am I hyped to see them again but at Boardmasters festival!
I knew these guys before You Me At Six but I'm so glad I saw them last night, made me love them even more. Honestly one of the best bands I've seen live.
i saw them at a really small festival called standon calling in hertfordshire. i was blown away. so refreshing. had a couple of drinks with them, they're fucking awesome.
You guys are beyond amazing and talented saw you guys perform last night at the tribal seeds concert in redway CA 😍😍👌 just absolutely fell in love with you guys
saw them about a year ago at real big fish and then cap down, didn't even know they were on scuzz, might start watching it again if that is the case :P
My copy of Live.Breathe.Build.Believe arrived. Was ordering Part and Parcel before the record even made it to Culture Vulture. Found about these folk by a comment on a less than jake mentioning that ska is not dead, the UK took it back. I wouldn't consider this ska...but it's fucking massive, easily the best new project in the genre to this mind since the late 90's. Come hop the pond! East London reggae? East Coast US? You will not go unappreciated.
I know with a bit of control you could be a little better, better yet a better friend to me, me say that I know you could get your life in order, hear it knocking on your door with a Ratatat-tat I know with a bit of control you could be a little better, better yet a better friend to me, me say that I know you could get your life in order, hear it knocking on your door with a Ratatat-tat (tat tat tat tat) Cause I mark it as a must have, ride it like a mustang, ignore it like your phone rang Say it like I have saying took away my life man, took away my life line, couldn't be my only When you see me you treat me like a piece of meat, like a DVD cause I'm a VCR, see And I will be ghastly cause i lost my last me, ran around for your sake so I'm gonna get nasty I know that you are no good for me One more time and then you'll set me free I know that you are no good for me One more time and then you'll set me free I'm rocking back and forth of course I'll blame it on myself I been going stir crazy from haze And awake for two days Better than to be sleeping in hell Falling apart like a fragment, climbing back into my shell And it's bait that's she's making me change Love became hate and rage I'm locked up, but I ain't in a cell Ain't cocked up but I'm blaming myself Long stuff feeling pain from a girl Monged out and away from the world for a minute Friends say it's the way of the world that I live in And I don't wanna give it But honestly I'm finished And the quality's diminished and I'm feeling kinda sick-ish Hook, line and sinker like fishes Never took time and did my three wishes Make a hook line and keep myself singing Could say that I've scored and ain't winning But mate that's women, innit I know that you are no good for me One more time and then you'll set me free I know that you are no good for me One more time and then you'll set me free Got a little bit of 8-bit raggabit My reggae vibe alive, having all of it Visit all eternity it stops while I play When I'm physically yearning for the bass while i'm holding it Got a little bit of Grime, no crime Cosmically fly, well you're gonna be mine Frank West better make it cause he's running up high Me ah dead the undead, one rhyme at a time!

JHEEEEZ best tune ive heard in a long time
Welcome to GREECE ;)
Athens - Volos - Thessaloniki
we ready
THIS SONG IS IN MY HEAD 24/7
coool !! we like to much Skints!!
this and soundboy are my two favourite tracks off the new album
it's dang sick
I know with a bit of control you could be a little better, better yet a better friend to me, me say that
I know you could get your life in order, hear it knocking on your door with a Ratatat-tat
I know with a bit of control you could be a little better, better yet a better friend to me, me say that
I know you could get your life in order, hear it knocking on your door with a Ratatat-tat (tat tat tat tat)
Cause I mark it as a must have, ride it like a mustang, ignore it like your phone rang
Say it like I have saying took away my life man, took away my life line, couldn't be my only
When you see me you treat me like a piece of meat, like a DVD cause I'm a VCR, see
And I will be ghastly cause i lost my last me, ran around for your sake so I'm gonna get nasty
I know that you are no good for me
One more time and then you'll set me free
I know that you are no good for me
One more time and then you'll set me free
I'm rocking back and forth of course I'll blame it on myself
I been going stir crazy from haze
And awake for two days
Better than to be sleeping in hell
Falling apart like a fragment, climbing back into my shell
And it's bait that's she's making me change
Love became hate and rage
I'm locked up, but I ain't in a cell
Ain't cocked up but I'm blaming myself
Long stuff feeling pain from a girl
Monged out and away from the world for a minute
Friends say it's the way of the world that I live in
And I don't wanna give it
But honestly I'm finished
And the quality's diminished and I'm feeling kinda sick-ish
Hook, line and sinker like fishes
Never took time and did my three wishes
Make a hook line and keep myself singing
Could say that I've scored and ain't winning
But mate that's women, innit
I know that you are no good for me
One more time and then you'll set me free
I know that you are no good for me
One more time and then you'll set me free
Got a little bit of 8-bit raggabit
My reggae vibe alive, having all of it
Visit all eternity it stops while I play
When I'm physically yearning for the bass while i'm holding it
Got a little bit of Grime, no crime
Cosmically fly, well you're gonna be mine
Frank West better make it cause he's running up high
Me ah dead the undead, one rhyme at a time!
One more time, so divine, one of mine, bickering ain't gonna make you get in line this time
Me second maybe lady will evolve? I'm trying!
But you're keeping me right here with your protective stylin
Can you hear the bell ah ring?
I hear the bell ah chime, man ah say me ah the one
But I know you tell a lie you know you made me wanna die?
I had a cry, no style, read the signs me haffi say goodbye
I know that you are no good for me
One more time and then you'll set me free
I know that you are no good for me
One more time and then you'll set me free
You get down-down-down-down-down-down
My soul ah weak and you've been messing around-ound-ound
But this sound, rocking around the system
My likkle soul, me dancing around
Now hold up!
Down-down-down-down-down-down
My soul ah weak and you've been messing around-ound-ound
But this sound, rocking around the system
My likkle soul, me dancing around
Now hold up!
Now hold up!
Now hold up!
Now hold up!
Now hold up
Also, please please please come to Norwich! Thanks ;) x
This is sweet!!!
