About

From sweaty club shows to uproarious festival dates, LESS THAN JAKE'S deeds are best measured 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 Noise Records, should help keep those smiles tattooed on the faces of their fans. The new material is stacked with loud guitars, booming bass, thunderous drums, those distinct vocal harmonies, and the one-two punch of the trombone and sax.

These seven tracks see the band conquering new musical territory, while holding true to the classic 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, you would never know it.

The recording sessions were helmed by Jason Livermore and legendary drummer/producer Bill Stevenson (Black Flag, Descendents, ALL). Stevenson and crew harnessed LESS THAN JAKE's urgency and helped capture their frenetic live energy on this eclectic collection of new material.

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 THAN JAKE have never even taken a summer off. 33 years performing and the band is more visible than ever. If you're looking for a rocking good time, look no further: LESS THAN JAKE doesn't just bring the party, they are the party!

    It was a lot of fun, Less Than Jake is always fun to see. We really enjoyed the opening band The Swellers also.

    You can't go wrong with Less Than Jake. Its a punk show, a ska show, a good ole rock show. Not to mention a little bit of comedy thrown in. If you go to a LTJ show your gonna have a good time. Period

  • Casualties/Less Than Jake-a power combo

    by sunnysue69 on 11/16/09Rams Head Live! - BaltimoreRating: 5 out of 5

    This show was amazing. To combine the hard core of the casualties with the more pop-punk sound of Less than Jake was inspired. They are 2 very different sounds, but both bands have very similar messages and their perfoming together only supports the need for unity in the punk community. If the bands can reach out and play together, respect and listen to the messages behind the sound...unity...there is nothing they can't do....GO AND SEE THIS SHOW, it's worth every penny!!!

  • Less Than Jake was the best

    by Dylan1495 on 11/15/09Rams Head Live! - BaltimoreRating: 5 out of 5

    Going to the less Than Jake concert was amazing out of all the concerts I've been to this was by far the best. Their music was not only good but, they were funny too.

  • I Heart LTJ

    by jen38 on 11/14/09Masquerade - AtlantaRating: 4 out of 5

    These guys have freaking ruled for a decade now. Though they are getting visibly older, their music hasn't changed. I love them and probably always will. I also really enjoyed the fact that the 2nd generation of LTJ fans are coming to the shows w mom and pops and so there were an abundance of 8-12 year olds in attendance. Quite the sight. Set list was great and I love LTJ.
