Link 80 - 17 Reasons (1997)

Apple Music categorizes this as "Alternative", cementing in my mind that their categorizations -- and most musical categories, generally -- are pointless.

This blends ska and punk more skillfully than the other ska punk bands have, in my opinion: it's not "we yell and then some songs there are horns", bringing ska into punk, but speeding up the ska (even more!) and making it angry, keeping the horns around the entire time.

"What Can I Do?" - "I feel like I'm the only one that doesn't wear a mask". You should wear a mask, Danielle Steel's son! We're in a pandemic!

Haha holy shit it stopped playing after "Burning Down" and I thought "well that's weird, usually it will play another album automatically, but I'm going to be in a meeting soon". And then a few minutes later it started again, because their handling of "secret track" was just to have like five minutes of silence. So I actually said "what the-" out loud, to myself.

The 90s were a mistake.
