Gangsters, the first single by the Special A.K.A. (The Specials).

The Specials (The Special AKA) - Gangsters (1979) • TopPop

there are some bands you don’t just listen to—you carry them with you, like sunburnt memories and late drives that never really ended.

Sublime coming back with Until the Sun Explodes doesn’t feel like a comeback. it feels like something unfinished finally finding its way home—three decades later, with a voice that echoes the past and still tries to say something new (Wikipedia)

and that’s what this piece captures.

the Sublime 2026 Until The Sun Explodes Home Decor Poster doesn’t scream for attention. it sits somewhere quieter—like a faded gig flyer you found years later, or a record sleeve that’s been through too many nights to count. the artwork leans into that feeling of heat, nostalgia, and something just on the edge of burning out… or beginning again.

maybe that’s why it hits.

because “until the sun explodes” isn’t just a title—it’s a promise. or maybe a goodbye. fans have already been calling the track emotional, something that feels like a message passed between generations, raw and personal in a way only this band could pull off (Reddit)

you don’t hang this on your wall just to decorate a room. you hang it because you remember where you were when the music first found you—and how, somehow, it never really left.

For those who aren't on ska twitter, or really in the ska scene, Freelance Music Journalist, Aaron Carnes hosts a podcast based on topics from his ska punk / skacore history book. His mission was as the name of the book says to give readers (mostly readers w/ negative or less positive opinions on ska and the ska punk / skacore genres a different perspective. Aaron now finished with that book has now converted those ideas into a podcast

(tweet from @megainfinityband)

This podcast has interview anyone generally whos been connected to the ska scene in one way or another. Episodes including, Anthony Fantano, Laura Jane Grace of Against Me, Reade Wolcott of We are the Union, Eichlers, Jer Hunter of Skatune Network and We are the Union, Barry Johnson of Joyce Manor, and Now one of my favorite scene bands Ice Nine Kills.

Ice nine kills minus the demos, and a local tv performance and some collabs hasnt made a ska record since the band was in high school.
