I am not happy with how this tape sounds. It's very low sounding. The bass sounds great but the rest of the music suffers because of it.
I think I might have to re-rip it with modified settings.
REPOSTED BY REQUEST
This is a re-post deluxe. I got a request to re-post the two demo tapes so, instead of just posting the two demo tapes, I also included a live recording and a collection of songs recorded at practice sessions that were never recorded in a studio.
...
They did have one other release that they put out in 1998 - a year before they put this out - and that release was a live recording that showed they were not an instrumental band. There were vocals in some songs. That recording can be heard HERE.

As time went on they got better. The vocals went from fun amateur to professional pop vocals. The songwriting started out strong and got even better over time and the band played tighter. Unfortunately as they got better as a band they drifted away from ska. That last album has horns in a few songs but there is only one ska/reggae song and the rest is pop-punk.
I like pop-punk and I think it's a great album but I am disappointed that they moved away from ska when they were at their finest.

"Conspiracy" is one of the greatest 3rd wave ska songs ever recorded.

A - Mamma Don't Dance

No, this is not ska or reggae. I'm posting it because their first two records are ska/reggae and if you have them (I posted them here - the link is dead but I could find it in my heart to re-up it if anybody needs it) then you might want this one to complete the collection. It's not a great rip but I was so disappointed with it that I won't be re-ripping it. This is for reference only and not for enjoying on a long car ride.

I have it now and this is that EP.
Sadly, there's no ska on it. Ska influence, but not real ska.
Oh well. If you have the other two albums you will want this to complete the collection.

The A-side is a punk/reggae cover of Bobby Pickett's Monster Mash. Actually, the whole song is punk but it begins and ends with a punk-reggae beat.
I don't know where this band was from but this single was issued with a cover. My record doesn't have the cover but you can see a teensy-tiny picture of the cover on Discogs. If you read the comment on this entry you'll see a band member saying that this a one-off implying that the band never released anything else.
I don't care much for the B-side but the A-side is really good. And this record is quite rare.
A - Monster Mash
B - Bloodsuckers of the Universe

This was a ska band from Bavaria, Germany. Very little is known about them and the only reason I know they were from Bavaria is thanks to Burn Heart from In Search of the Ska.
This image has nothing to do with the band itself, just a sticker I found on eBay.
There are four tracks I'm assuming I must have gotten from MySpace many years ago but I don't remember exactly. Sadly the quality sucks but that's all I got. Here they are in incredible 52 kbps.

When I was younger some of the best shows I have ever seen were band rehearsals when the band invited people to watch them rehearse and it always started out for the first hour or so as a serious band rehearsal but morphed into a party a couple hours later.
Ah...the good ol' days.
This tape is a live recording. I don't think they ever recorded in a studio. This recording is available on Bandcamp but it's not complete. This download here is for the complete tape including "Rudi, a Message to You" and "Rat Race" which are not on the Bandcamp version. "Rudi..." is a cover song but, surprisingly, "Rat Race" is not.
