Streetlight Manifesto is a third wave ska punk band from East Brunswick, New Jersey, under the creative leadership of singer/guitarist Tomas Kalnoky. Since forming in 2002, the band has released four full-length albums.
Several of Streetlight’s members were already well known among the New Jersey ska community for their roles in past ska bands from that area, most notably Catch 22’s Tomas Kalnoky, James Egan, Mike Soprano, and Josh Ansley, as well as One Cool Guy’s Stuart Karmatz, Pete Sibilia, Dan Ross, and Chris Paszik.
The band’s first album, Everything Goes Numb, was released on August 26, 2003, and was distributed by Victory Records. They headlined their first ever show at Rutgers University on December 9, 2003 in front of a sold out audience.
The line-up has gone through several changes since the band’s conception and currently consists of Matt Stewart on trumpet, Mike Brown on alto and baritone saxophone, Jim Conti on alto and tenor saxophone, Tomas Kalnoky on guitar and lead vocals, Pete McCullaugh on bass guitar, Nadav Nirenberg on trombone, and Chris Thatcher on drums.
Though the band have enjoyed no mainstream commercial success, they have received acclaim in alternative music circles, and their debut album is currently in Interpunk.com’s top 100 items, over 2 years after its release. In addition, they regularly sell out their live shows, and their first few shows at Rutgers and The Stone Pony not only sold out, but had people coming from as far as Minnesota and Canada. Their second album, a reworking of Catch 22’s Keasbey Nights was released on March 7, 2006.

Yeah the pace they release music at kind of sucks, but they've put out nothing but quality material and I think that more than makes up for it.

Everyone gets upset with Streetlight for the same reason. We all know they take their time with releases. But I've seen these guys close to ten times now, and never get tired of them touring. I would love new material from them, yes, but the music they've put out has such incredible replay value that I'm perfectly content with their catalogue. And apparently they're getting close to finishing up the new record...as long as it comes out before the world ends in a year, I'm happy lol

Drake _is_ fairly shitty. And a lot of mainstream rappers are equally shitty, it's a sad fact. Let's turn this into a hiphop discussion, I'm all for it. In the meantime I'll be putting on some Lil' Wayne, one of the last true great rappers.

And of course people tour to pay rent. But its been a little excessive, even for such a large band.

AlexGVega wrote:
"AlexGVega, never mention Drake on here again." lol. are you one of those 'real hip hop' fans who listen to Eminem and a few underground acts and claim to know everything? Or do you just hate mainstream for the simple fact that its mainstream?? IDK why else you would get all wet over me mentioning Drake when I was talking about his tour bus, not even Drake's music itself.
