Ok, so I did a bit of research so you don't have to (including watching the full video). It's a homage/cover/part 3/whatever of a Rod Stewart song about the homophobic killing of a gay man in the 70s, with ADDED 'Ska solves racism'. BUT WHY????? It might be the most tone deaf thing I've heard or seen in a long time. To think this would've gone through so many filters to get out into the world. Madness. Quote
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted May 14, 2021 Moderators Posted May 14, 2021 I watched the whole thing. It's fucking hilarious. He's very confident for such a terrible dancer, I gotta say. Quote

I still think that’s a fucking great song. @Merzbow, just because it’s different doesn’t mean Ska Punk is shit. A perfectly enjoyable genre of music unless you’re allergic to fun. You fun sponge. that said, this song is extremely tragic. Quote
Merzbow Posted May 15, 2021 Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) Implying that OG Ska isn't more fun, you can bounce to that stuff even more. Some Ska Punk is decent to be honest, but fuck me it's the worst gentrification of a genre outside of house. Edited May 15, 2021 by Merzbow Quote
