Silver Linings (LP)

Facts Limited edition yellow colored vinyl LP pressing. Silver Linings is ska punk veterans Less than Jake's first full-length for the Pure Noise label and the follow-up to 2013's See The Light. It also doubles as a bunch of sonic diary pages and a mission statement that cements their conviction after two decades in this rock 'n' roll circus. Indeed, LTJ-frontman/guitarist Chris DeMakes, bassist/vocalist Roger Lima, trombonist Buddy Schaub, saxophonist Peter "JR" Wasilewski, and new drummer Matt Yonker - have escaped most (but not all) forms of ennui, depression and violence against screen-based objects to create an endorsement of humanity.
