Skanking is great fun! Just let yourself go to the rhythm of the music... and don't look like my friend.

Let's revive it and put some great tracks to skank to then! I may be getting that little bit older but this still makes want to jump around like a loon:

Yeah, that's a good one too. Is it a cover of a Slapshot song? If so, I was never aware of that before.

No. It's an original as far as I know and from their best album: More Noises and Other Disturbances. It's a lot edgier than later releases.

Yeah, I've owned More Noises and Other Disturbances for years, but the image on the YouTube video seemed to imply that "What's at Stake" is cover of a Slapshot song. If it is, that's news to me but I wouldn't be surprised since both bands come from the scene at the same time.

I dig More Noises and Other Disturbances but I have to say I disagree about it being their best. My favorite is probably their first album Devil's Night Out, the album "Hope I Never Lose My Wallet" is from.

EDIT: Ah, according to Wikipedia it is a cover of a Slapshot song. I never knew that!
