Fans of the band can watch the video and indulge in a short but sweet recap of one of ska-punk’s greatest pioneering bands. The video contains audio and video from the band’s first 20 years together, ranging from the group’s early days to recent festival appearances in Europe. Trombonist Buddy Schaub assembled the video, with content pulled from hundreds of hours of archived footage. From seeing lead singers Chris DeMakes and Roger Manganelli play small stages in the late 1990s with bad haircuts...to watching saxophonist Peter “J.R.” Wasilewski and drummer Vinnie Fiorello on stage at large festivals in the late 2010s with worse haircuts, fans will enjoy the audio-visual trip through LTJ’s career. Watch now: Less Than Jake – 20th Anniversary Video Most recently, Less Than Jake released a music video for “Conviction Notice,” the last video that will come from the band’s 2008 LP GNV/FLA. The record is LTJ’s most recent full-length. Watch now: Less Than Jake – “Conviction Notice” The band continues to support the five-song Greetings From Less Than Jake digital EP, self-released on the band’s own label, Sleep It Off Records.
