Tim Armstrong, of Rancid fame, recently released A Poet’s Life . It’s been almost 10 years since I picked up a new ska album. I was quite happy that he’s still carrying the torch. It’s more Joe Strummer than Less Than Jake, with the standard reggae beat throughout the album. The album is great for the summer time, perfect timing. The third track, “Into Action”, requires the stereo cranked and the windows rolled down.
