Mixtape: Skanktastic!

Photo by Leigh AuCoin

Ska is a genre that is impossible to dislike. If you claim to dislike the sweet sound of brass licks and twanging guitars, you’re either a liar or you’re dead inside. We like ska here at Stereokill – as you might have guessed if you read Campbell’s ecstatic review of Toots & The Maytals’ last Glasgow show – so I decided for our next mixtape, I’d use it as a theme. We’ve got a nice balance between newer ska-punk bands and old favourites, and I think you’ll enjoy it.
