Borders & Boundaries

Ska-Punk stalwarts Less Than Jake celebrates 25th anniversary of their best selling album with expanded edition with six bonus tracks.Released in 2000, third wave ska band Less Than Jake took the bold steps on Borders and Boundaries. With producer Steve Kravac at helm, the album leans into skate-pop punk more than any previous album. A polarizing release initially (some critics wrote about wanting more horns and "major label” sellouts). Punk news called the album “underrated.” Though Canada’s Chart Attack & Germanys’ Rock Hard & Ox-Fanzine would disagree. As would UK’s Drowned in Sound giving the album a perfect 10/10 and writing ”every song is so darn catchy”25 years later, Borders and Boundaries is now is the band’s best selling and most popular release. The 25th Anniversary edition includes five previously unreleased demos and new mix of “Is this Thing on?”
