thats the best part, the album is so far beyond just the Ska style that it sounds so fresh. This album is the reason why I still look for modern ska bands, because it show the genre has the ability to evolve.

Listen to the entire album of Everything Goes Numb, while reading the lyrics (perhaps the most amazing lyrics ever created) because the album is truely amazing in every way. Their second album (Somewhere in the Between) is solid but nowhere near how good as their debut so I suggest waiting before you listen to that one.
