" @LessThanMike:  
 
PUNK album in the year 2000.  Bit of an oxymoron, no? I dunno, last punk album I listened to was Fucked Up's last album. It was pretty good. "

If I were picking from those I have to agree with you on Alk3. 
 
If I were picking my own, I say Pennybridge Pioneers by Millencolin.

" Just thought I'd say that I'm the most casual fan of RBF ever, and their last two albums were largely horrible. Ska is fairly dead. "

Aquabats also set a release date for their new long overdue CD, which is good b/c I've listened to Charge!!! so much since it came out in 2005 I think I wore out the CD haha.

...that sounds like it could potentially be the most fun concert of all-time. Ska is not dead! Although it seems like everytime awesome stuff like this happens they're always on the western half of the country, so I'll try to contain my excitement until I see the dates. Just thought I should alert as many people with awesome music taste as possible about this momentous event.

Seems like an obvious attempt by EA to make a clone of Little Big Planet, but that's not necessarily a bad thing, we'll have to wait and see.
