L is for Losing Streak

This week we cover Less Than Jake's sophomore album Losing Streak We break down the band's Gainesville DIY roots, their jump from the underground success of Pezcore to a major label with Capitol Records, and how Losing Streak captured a moment when ska-punk was exploding across MTV, college radio, and skate culture. Then we go track by track through the entire album and why these songs still resonate nearly 30 years later. We also explore why Losing Streak became one of the defining albums of 90s ska-punk, how it influenced the scene, and what Less Than Jake is up to today as one of punk's most consistent touring bands.
