Our Take

USUAL PLAYERS' Street Ska - Vol 1 is a tantalising blend of infectious rhythms and cheeky lyrics that will have you skanking in no time. This album is dripping with the sweat and swagger of a band that knows how to get the party started.

From the opening track "Skankin' in the Rain" to the closing anthem "Ska 'til You Drop", USUAL PLAYERS take you on a wild ride through the streets of ska. The brass section blares like a drunk uncle at a family wedding, while the guitars skank away like a toddler hopped up on sugar.

Lead singer Kev's gravelly voice adds a sense of urgency to each song, like he's trying to convince you to join him in a ska-fueled revolution. The lyrics touch on themes of unity, rebellion, and of course, getting down on the dance floor.

Standout tracks include "Rude Boy Shuffle", a bouncy ode to the bad boys of ska, and "Pint in Hand", a sentimental ballad about the joys of a cold beer and a warm skank.

Overall, Street Ska - Vol 1 is a rollicking good time that will have you pogo-ing around your living room in no time. So grab your pork pie hat and your checkerboard Vans, and get ready to party like it's 1979. Cheers, mate!
