Leek And The Bouncing Uptones - Ska-Core (PTA)



Leek And The Bouncing Uptones were a fast, melodic ska/punk band from Pretoria. They established themselves in 1994 and disbanded in 2002. They played a style of ska-punk similar to bands such as Link 80 and Less Than Jake but with lots of hardcore break-downs. They released 4 albums, appeared on one split and many compilation throughout South Africa and the rest of the world. Leek And The Bouncing Uptones were well known for their live shows (pure mayhem and chaos). I am posting this even though i cant get hold of the guys to ask permission. This was one of my favorite bands when i was "growing up" and the first song i ever worked out on guitar was a Leek song named "Vegie Core". They had albums on distros like 20 deck records and Interpunk, but from doing Google searches i have found out that those distros have discontinued the Leek stuff. So i am posting up what Leek i have and hoping i don't get in shit for it. I don't want their music to die!   ^_^
ENJOY! and lets spread it like the PLAGUE!
