Music reviews of Mashin' Up the Nation: The Best of American Ska, Vols. 1 & 2
Music Review: Mellow Ska
Rating: 3 Stars
Listeners of the "Skarmageddon" series and "Mailorder is fun" maybe be disappointed by this, mainly because this is mellower, nicer ska. Even the Mighty Mighty Bosstones song featured is one of their more subtle tracks, at least by Bosstones standards. Standout tracks are "I'd buy a gun" and "Drums and chicken" (which is a song the MMB redid every other album, it seemed, and it only gets better with each remake.) The sound quality is a little poor at times, but overall it's enjoyable. Ska is like Pizza, even when it's bad, it's still pretty good.
