From sweaty club shows to uproarious festival dates, LESS THAN JAKE’S deeds are bestmeasured in the smiles they’ve generated for life-long fans and new listeners alike.Uncharted, the ska-punkers’ brand new 7 song EP released by longtime label Pure NoiseRecords, should help keep those smiles tattooed on the faces of their fans. The new material isstacked with loud guitars, booming bass, thunderous drums, those distinctvocal harmonies, andthe one-two punch of the trombone and sax.These seven tracks see the band conquering new musical territory, while holding true to theclassic LESS THAN JAKE sound.Indeed, LESS THAN JAKE—guitarist/vocalist Chris DeMakes, bassist/vocalist Roger Lima,trombonist Buddy Schaub, saxophonist Peter “JR” Wasilewski and drummer Matt Yonker—may have been at this for over three decades, but with the energy and spirit of this new EP, youwould never know it.The recording sessions werehelmed by Jason Livermore and legendary drummer/producer BillStevenson (Black Flag, Descendents, ALL). Stevenson and crew harnessed LESS THANJAKE’s urgency and helped capture their frenetic live energy on this eclectic collection of newmaterial.So,what’s next for Less Than Jake? One thing is for certain-their consistency.While the tendency now is for legacy acts to announce farewell and reunion tours, LESS THANJAKE have never even taken a summer off. 33 years performing and the band is more visiblethan ever. If you’re looking for a rocking good time, look no further: LESS THAN JAKE doesn’tjust bring the party, they are the party!
