Stubborn All-Stars - Back With a New Batch
Triple CrownRecords
The recent release "Back With a New Batch" from the jazzy trad-ska band The
Stubborn All-Stars offers a sound perfect for those days when you just feel
like chillin'. For those not familiar with their sound, the Stubborn
All-Stars can best be described as sounding halfway between traditional
reggae and jazz, but with a more modern twist. This is a definite must-buy
for any traditional ska freak (Avid reggae fans; you'll probably dig this
sound, too). People who live for bands like Reel Big Phish (Sorry, FISH),
Buck-O-Nine, and other 14-year-old girl oriented bands should avoid this
release at all cost. On a final note, if any of you happened to hear the
Rancid/Stubborn All Stars song "I wanna riot" on the Beavis and Butthead Do
America soundtrack, their overall sound is pretty similar (minus the Rancid
edge, of course.)
