Music Video: 3 Minute Warning – “TV Is On”
3 Minute Warning were a UK ska band, who had a release on Do the Dog Records. I only just read that the band broke up back in July, since some members left 3 Minute Warning. That stinks, they were a good ska band! Enjoy a music video for their song “TV Is On.”

Record Label: Do the Dog Records
Genre: Ska
Band Link: www.myspace.com/thesteadyboysuk
The Steady Boys are a bit of a change for Do the Dog Records in that they aren’t a full fledged ska band. The UK band has an Oi! / classic punk rock sound but there’s a few riffs that resemble ska. This debut album is definitely an impressive one!

The Bakesys – “Return of the Planet of the Bakesys”
Record Label: Do the Dog Records
Genre: Ska
The Bakesys were a popular 90s ska group in the UK. Kevin Flowerdew, who runs Do the Dog Records was in this band and played the keys. So I guess I should be careful what I say? No seriously, there’s nothing bad to say about the Bakesys!

Rebelation – “The Berlin Session”
Record Label: Do the Dog Records
Genre: Ska
Band Link: www.myspace.com/rebelationuk
Rebelation plays rocksteady, ska reggae and hail from the UK. The Berlin Session is a 5 track EP that features some nice, groovy ska/reggae tunes. The songs were recorded in just 2 days, live in the Berlin studio. Not bad, not bad! I’ve always had others review their albums so this is the first time I’m hearing them. If I knew Rebelation were this good, I probably would have kept the releases for myself to review. I’m greedy like that.
