66. Mighty Mighty Bosstones, "The Impression That I Get"

June 28 - July 4, 1997



I remember catching a two-tone suited, pre-TRL Carson Daly hosting a "Skaturday" special at the MTV Beach House the summer this broke. I'd like to think that Carson sings along to this if it comes on the radio, but he's probably not that cool. Maybe he feels like he's known real struggle and can't relate to the band's giddy humility. Maybe, on his downtime, he just listens to Prince Buster.

I'm not a coward,
I've just never been tested
I'd like to think that if I was,
I would pass
Look at the tested and think there but for the grace go I
Might be a coward,
I'm afraid of what I might find out

Comments:
their early album Ska Core The Devil & More is a classic, it's a shame this band isn't around any more, last night after a SCHMEISSE MINNELLI / False Cause my friends & I discussed in the car how much we liked this band, oh well...
