Well, anyone who doesn’t know them must not have been living in this world… because we’re here to talk to you about none other than Ska-P! People can say what they like, some will speak well of them and others badly, but without a doubt, they’re the country’s leading ska-punk and punk rock band!
With their catchy songs, they made their mark on the second half of the ’90s and the first part of the 2000s, getting millions of restless young people all over the world singing along. After several breaks and a somewhat less regular release schedule, this past year, 2023, they gave us this four-song EP titled “Seguimos” (“We Carry On”)—though, putting a little humor into the matter… they’ve announced another hiatus!
That said, this EP gives us four tracks that are 100% true to the band’s style. At this point, they’re not looking to reinvent themselves, but that doesn’t mean they’ve let their standards or energy slip. If you like the band, this release won’t disappoint…
They kick things off with “Estimado John,” an emotive song with some great melodies, in which Pulpul speaks directly to the late John Lennon of the Beatles… who knows, maybe one day those messages of peace and love will reach the people who hold the reins of the world, too
Next up is “Las Flores,” a song with a very classic ska rhythm for the band, reminding us that in this country, things were swept under the rug.
The release closes with “El chupacabras” and “El ático.”
If you’re a fan of the band, this release won’t disappoint. It’ll get you singing and dancing, just as they’ve done all these years…
So we hope this is just a see-you-later!
