Yeah I know I do a lot of Japanese ska bands. But frankly the Japanese scene is as strong as the US scene in it’s heyday in terms of talent and musicality, and I’ll fight anyone who says different. This week, we’ve got band with the understated name ARTS. Frankly I wish I could pull off a plum suit like these guys can.

Yeah, so I didn’t post anything last week. My bad. Work sucked, you know the story.
In penance, this week we have 2 videos. The first, as suggested by Mike, is from the underrated Third Wave band Save Ferris. Unfortunately their first and only hit was a cover, so they got lumped into “crappy-ska-band X” crowd. The second, in honor of Grounation Day today, is Count Ossie performing and then meeting Emperor Haile Sellasie.

Dave Hillyard, current Slacker (as well as probably a dozen other side projects) and ex-Hepcat member, gave a great little interview at the fantastic ska blog Music Is My Occupation.

Yeah I know this is late. I seem to have the ability to cram every important thing in my life on Mondays, so this got overlooked. So it’s appropriate that this week, we are going with one of the only official videos The Slackers ever did. Coming from The Question, here’s Have The Time.
