Ska Wars!
jbenwell by James Benwell April 13th, 2001
In a recent interview, legendary LA ska-punkers, Goldfinger announced Less than Jake to be "baloney-sandwich-eating buffons", as well as "a bunch of two-faced, shit-talking girls". In what seemed like a call to arms, they also asked that a tape be played to Less than Jake telling them that Goldfinger's patience has run out! How would LTJ react when they heard this? Vinnie's answer was simple "Goldfinger, we love you too and we'll see you soon."

The Voodoo Glow Skulls and Reel Big Fish are also bands who Goldfinger reported to have a 'strong dislike' for Less than Jake. Frenzal Rhomb, however, joined the feud on the side of the Jakesters giving this message to Goldfinger: "If you fucking asshole Americans ever come to Australia, you'll fuckin' get raped by kangaroos and wombats'll crawl up your ass! You can fuck off you cunts!!!" Fellow countrymen, 28 Days, who recently toured with Goldfinger apparently have nothing good to say about the band and so the battle lines have been drawn. It's Goldfinger, Reel Big Fish and the Voodoo Glow Skulls VS Less than Jake, Frenzal Rhomb and 28 Days! Who shall win? For now, cast your votes for your favourite team on the message board and tune in soon for the next installment of 'ska wars'!!!
