Okay, so a Japanese ska band might seem like a bit of a stretch, but legendary ska guitarist Dennis "Blackbeard" Bovell said of Nippon's leading purveyors of ska, "I'd make time for Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra anytime." If it is good enough for Blackbeard, then it is good enough for the likes of ANTSS.
In the 1980s, said Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra started playing street corners and bottom-tier club dates. The natty rockers have grown themselves a bit of fanbase since those early days. Here's TSPO playing their classic "Monster Rock" to an absurd number of fans.
Have a great weekend, Screamers and Screamettes.

Great minds and all that...
