The story behind the album title:

Third wave SKA started to get popular in the late 90’s- many of the traditional SKA fans did not appreciate their music being hijacked by the 3rd-wavers. They would usually show up at the shows to heckle the bands playing. I’m not sure what show or when it happened- but a group of skinheads were not exactly enjoying our brand of SKA. In-between songs, one the guys yelled (and I quote) “This ain’t SKA, this is SKATEBOARD MUSIC!” Since we grew up skateboarding, we took it as a compliment and named our first album after it!
