Edinburghs heaviest export- A 10 man ska machine thundering out a new kind of noise to skank to. Spotted across scotland and beyond since the turn of the century, this band are causing widespread dancing and structural damage like no other.
"Their electric pulsating set was high tempo thundering Ska, which stirred up the packed out venue to fever pitch. It was a set of their pure original material, except for a blinding version of "54-46 was My Number" which turned the crowd to maniac level" Paul Willow@TheSpecials.com

Just been listening to some Ska music. Hmmm, potent stuff. It actually gives me the munchies its that good. Yes, sometimes I’ll have two or three Ska a night and just go crazy. I know it sounds like I have a problem but don’t worry, I’ve got it under control.
In the horrific and unimaginable days before Ska, people used to do all sorts of crazy things for entertainment; dominos, ethnic cleansing, jazz. Frankly the mind boggles to think of it. No one knows for sure where Ska came from or how it was created. Some say that Prometheus stole it from the gods. A much more likely possibility is that it was created in the sixties by scientists at NASA who were working for the Pentagon, seeking a cure for Communism. Whichever explanation is correct I’m glad they did because, well, I’m only happy when I’m listening to Ska.
While all may seem quiet from outside the Bomblab, all is a hive of activity inside - we'll be bringing out a single, Crime of the Century, in the next couple o months, ahead of our album later in the year, which is now in the mixing stages.
You can preview the track exclusively at the Road to V website - the website that could get us playing at the V Festival 2008 if some miraculous forces align... We're not holding our breaths, but it can't harm to try, eh?
As a wee incentive to register, rate us (5 stars if you think us worthy!), and leave us a comment, we'll be giving away free copies of the single to 5 randomly selected people who do just that.
To enter, just leave us a comment letting us know what you think of the tune... or anything else you care to share! Winners will be announced when the single is out...
Bombskare & The Toasters - A Transatlantic Ska Double Bill!
Our friends the Toasters are back in Scotland, on their 28th Anniversary Tour, and we're very pleased to have them playing with us again. Doors 9pm, 2 headline sets plus DJs. £7 on the door.
