Ska wars isn't really very representitive of them cos it's very ska orientated... most of their songs are very Hardcore with Ska and reggae touches. Ska Wars is one of their most ska orinetated songs...

And yes, they are amazing live! Jake (their vocalist) had a bad throat when I saw them, so it almost got cancelled, but they came anyway, didn't want to let down the fans. And they were awesome!

Also, did you get a free Goodie bag at the Metal Hammer- TTN, Dog Toffee, thisGIRL tour?

Well, my mate did give me a copied CD, and yes, i'm sure it's Deftones!
Some parts of Bored are recognisable, but others are not.

And yes, Incubus rule! 'Pardon Me' is by far their greatest song, and they are not related to Hoobastank - another top band!

And as for the Brittish bands, anyone heard of Halo??? No, not the game!
I heard them on MTV2 a while ago, and they're apparently from somewhere near where I live. I didn't think they were that bad actually, but for me, it's hard to describe them.

Ive only heard Ska Wars and one other. neither of which I was keen on. My mates have told me they are amazing live though and I will fall in love with them :)

I saw the same tour as you then, the metal hammer one. I missed TTN as I was tired and went home to bed. hehe

Yeah, but have you heard any Capdown songs off their CDs? They're hardly you average Ska punk band... mix Ska and Reggae with Hardcore, and they rocked when I saw em on Monday!!! Dog Toffee were good when I saw em, but it was a tiny venue :D I saw thisGIRL supporting Dog Toffee and Tribute To nothing... TTN were the best!

Saw them in London, Brixton Acadamy I think it was.

Where did you see Hundred reasons and Incubus?

I saw them in Manchester, and i thought that Hundred Reasons weren't too bad!

No when they supported Incubus.

They really were poor. Maybe they had a bad set up or something. But I really didnt enjoy them at all (And neither did the people I was with)

Its not because I dont like the band, as the songs I have heard off the album are quite cool.

Going to see Capdown tomorrow (Even though I hate Ska Punk).
Dog Toffee Sucked when I saw them.
Check out thisGIRL, they rock.

how can u say they are the worst live band uve ever seen? and did u see them supporting muse?

Hundred Reasons. Certainly the worst live band I've ever seen.

After the gig Mr Afro front man was handing out flyers to people, he asked one of my friends what she thought of Hundred Reasons. She replied "They were terrible, worst live band ever", She didn't realise he was a member of the band. Oh how I laughed.
