Skammentary: The Mighty Mighty Bosstones are unique among third-wave ska-punk bands. I'm glad the Reel Big Fish & Less Than Jake are still out there releasing new music, but I wish their Twenty-first Century stuff sounded more like their late Twentieth Century stuff. I like the Bosstones' Twentieth Century stuff, like "Where'd You Go?," but I really love their later, Twenty-first Century stuff.
"Lit a cigarette, I couldn't smoke,
Wound the clock until it broke,
Went to bed then took a shower,
Stared at T.V. for an hour,
Did the dishes, made the bed,
Read a book I've never read,
Any minute you will show,
And I'm wondering where did you go?
"Where'd you go?
Where'd you go?
I wanna know!…"
