The second full length from this awesome UK ska band. Their first album is great and this one is just as good! I guarantee you’ll be skanking to this whole CD. I just love bouncy ska music. I still think Smoke Like a Fish sounds like the Hotknives and The Toasters combined. I think what makes this band so much fun & good is how tight the horns and keys are, plus the vocalist doesn’t suck, he’s actually pretty dope! There’s a hidden track on the last song and it’s Judas Priest’s “Breaking the Law.” My only complaint is the CD is too short with only 11 tracks (1 hidden) but I guess they chose quality over quantity. If you guys are sick of the same old boring American ska bands, look overseas and check out some European ska bands like Smoke Like A Fish, The Hotknives and Too Many Crooks.

Bottom Line: Awesome bouncy UK Ska that everyone should check out.
Notable Tracks: “All Right Jack” “Repeat Offender” “Just Another”
