Smackjoint [UK]


2006-PRESENT
Ska-core band from Colchester/Ipswich, England. In the end of last year they released a pretty strong The PostGenericSkaCoreDubFusion E.P. Very interesting and rich sound. Its hard to find weak points. Just sad only three tracks. If u like Random Hand, The Junk, Harijan ud like them. They definitely deserve more listeners. And we need that long-play out! =)

"Smackjoint has been a concept for many years but took it's first form in 2006 as a 4-piece playing shows around Suffolk, UK. As this line-up "The SkacoreThrashPunk E.P" was created. After a few more years in 2009 Jim and Ben were enlisted into the band; introducing the opportunity to include the Horn-lines that were always destined to be in the tracks and free up front-man Stanley from the Bass. After a further 2 years of perfecting the songs and gigging the scene, Smackjoint decided to record the 3 track "The PostGenericSkacoreDubFusion E.P" with Peter Miles (Who produced such bands as The Skints, Random Hand, Sonic Boom Six and The King Blues) and started reaching out Nationally. Now with a Trombone player on the sidelines Smackjoint are writing a 10 Track L.P due for summer 2012."

What about The SkacoreThrashPunk E.P? Were the songs from it re-recorded and put on the new EP? I'm just curious as to what they sound like without the horns.

Yeah, kinda. They got two tracks from old EP. The Big Idea and Heavy Smoker. They were seriously improved and re-recorded. Will add it pretty soon here)
