I was starting to think it was a problem that all I listen to is Bruce Springsteen and Oingo Boingo with an occasional bit of Gaslight Anthem.

I have now stumbled across something new. Unfortunately, I can only buy their music as expensive import CD. Fortunately, there's YouTube:

Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra

Edit: I meant this link, but I'll leave that one too, it's shorter and with less talking.

Damn that's good!

My old desktop computer died. The last thing I'd been doing with it was playing Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra videos. The awesomeness was too much for it.

You know, I  have no idea what ska is. Are they really playing ska? Or is this Japanese ska to regular ska like Japanese curry is to Indian curry or Japanese pizza with corn and squid on it... you get the question.

I'm always suspicious of Ska bands. It's a niche sound that has developed into a scene similar to the blues, or rockabilly, or punk, which is populated by hundreds of bands that are virtually indistinguishable from one another. It's a trap to play a style of music that has such a well defined sound. It's also pretty lazy.

This band, probably because they are Japanese, and also because of their high degree of musicianship don't fall into that trap.

I can't get enough.

I know those words but that song name makes no sense.
EDIT: Nevermind I get it now.

Incidentally just listened to this one, I would pay all kinds of money for an album just of the instrumental bit they did at the end.

2 x EDITCOMBO: Turns out that's exactly what the second song Ash linked is. Sold.

I am listening to a lot of Kendrick Lamar. Something about his style really bugs me, but I also really like this album. Hm. He does these little things with his voice that drive me up the wall in a bad way.

But then there's fun shit like this and shit that makes me think or something like this.
