This visit to the Singles Bar comes absolutely loaded with treats. Among the eight picks you’ll discover a great reggae number, a cameo from a bona fide legend of Britpop, some goth oriented sounds, a riot grrrl inspired banger…and more besides. With a great variety, this represents everything we love about the SB, and hope you’ll find something to love too.

Although they’ve always been lumped in with the third wave of US ska bands, The Slackers have often presented more of a mature sound. Much like The Toasters, The Pietasters and Hepcat, their musical approach has drawn far more from a reggae pool over the years, and although their studio catalogue isn’t as extensive as some of their peers, it’s more than worth exploring. Although it may be short, this two track release will certainly please their fans.
