Slackers fan all the way from Manila. Then again, I lived in NYC for a time.
That fender ❤ oh baby
Saludos from Monterrey, México since 2009 presentes
I’m sitting right in front of you!! I’m so sorry. I never knew you were recording I would’ve backed off for sure.
Jajaja😂 buena esa
Tremenda banda, tuve la oportunidad de ver los en vivo por acá en Venezuela el país del desorden, saludos buena vibra
Wow awesome when did them play in Venezuela 🇻🇪
Great arrangement too awesome harmonies!
Giving those VH1 behind the music vibes. Keep em coming!
ok boomers
Kinda glad Texas was left out as the color of its map doesn't define its citizens. Sometimes folks are under / ill represented even tho we take part of the process. Been voting since I first saw y'all in '97 and will keep doing my civic duty. Much love to the hardest working band
Pure slackers style. I love it. Thanks!
<3
how tf Vic still looking so young? Dude looks younger than me and I've been listening to the Slackers since I was in primary school XD
Slackers forever, saludos desde Venezuela que buena vibra.
Wow, the newest album is fucking fire! Amazing. The Slackers will forever be one of the greatest bands ever to exist.
I'd go sailing with you any time😉
Brilliant band brilliant song
EPIC video!!!
That was awesome!
Let's hear it for the monkey!
Absolutely love it. Merry Christmas fellas.
Dabestttt you !!
I know you are b/c I’m watching you from spy cam world. Put pants on, man!
Woop! Love the chorus!!
My fave band from NYC. Come back soon to Hamburg, Germany!
SOO cooool
Enjoyed seeing you fellas at Supernova! SORRY for writing something a little of topic, but there's a big argument going on, and THE FOLLOWING IS IMPORTANT AND BRIEF: . Angels of The Garden are not SUPPOSED to sit on a throne of sexism and racism. Xx Chromosome WOMEN are not stealing their throne of fertility and race domination from Angels. They are stealing that position of PLANTS. They are only stealing the FORM of Angels, not the behaviors. The throne is only evil if it falls into the wrong control. Plants ARE SUPPOSED TO SIT ON A THRONE OF SEXISM AND RACISM THAT NO ANIMAL RACE CAN JOIN, FOR OBVIOUS REASONS: plant survival depends on sexism and racism communicating thru materials. It's not EVIL if PLANTS are the exclusive group. Don't try and convince me that TERFs, man hating lesbians, gold diggers, daddy's girls, man eaters, and other types of sexist xx female... DON'T exist. * ANGELS ARE SUPPOSED TO WELCOME OTHER RACES AND SEXES INTO BEING FAIR GARDEN TENDERS. * PLANTS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO TRY AND PULL EVERY SINGLE RACE INTO THE SOIL. . If there's a way to explain the stakes of this situation any clearer than this, I haven't found it yet.
Hellooo from windowland 👋
🎸❤️🎶🎵🇦🇷
It's tragic.....
come back to Berlin!
Yeah. Blues not looking so great right now lol
Slackers, I had to take a little break from ska for a while. But I have been giving Rocksteady Swindle & The s/t one a fair listen & they both RULE. I take back any negative comments I made, you guys are still doing great work. See you at Supernova! ❣️
Listening to the Slackers over the years has helped me both celebrate the best times and get through the worst times. Fuckin best band ever.

Noiiiiiiiiiiiiice!
Hey Slackers, this might sound strange, but I just woke up hearing voices that I think are either you or some plants pretending to be you. I also heard Jesse W and Qmax in the dream I was having, and you were all arguing about music and money and the shit current state of music. Qmax mentioned about his trips to Jamaica, that he could blend in better and felt he knew their culture more real because they don't always show their truest selves to whites. Now maybe that was your plants on your property representing you, and you have no idea it was happening, and I'm sounding really crazy right now... But I feel I needed to respond in some way. This is going to be weird. But I think your plants believe I have a bond with you, thru music... And it kind of WAS that way back in 1995-2005 when I felt you were the best band in music. Due to my angelhood... which I will get into in a second... I do have a special relationship with things that a lot of people don't understand very well, and for a while you were my favorite music. I have great respect for you all, in your art and your skill, but your music didn't follow where I went all the way down my journey... And I don't feel the same as I once did. 💕 When better late than never came out I had a trusting and honest relationship with the land I was living on. But I moved to Seattle in 2002, and the last thing that felt connected to me was wasted days. When close my eyes came out, it was all about handing things over to my then love at the time Vanessa. The cover even looks like her sitting in her mom's living room. And peculiar is filled with references that seem to mostly be about Vanessa starting to take testosterone injections and her journey to become Anthony... A journey which is very much real a decade later. So I noticed that when Anthony started taking t he started looking a bit like Victor Ruggiero, and Anthony's personality was changing as he got to know himself better as a man. And that was the last time I felt any real connection to your music? During your self medication album, I was experiencing great changes in my own life. See I was born intersex, not xy male or xx female, and God told me when I was 5 that it meant I was supposed to be more like an angel of his garden, than Adam or Eve. So I have never felt super tuned into man and woman stereotypes, and I guess it's based on my genetic structure. But your culture is very sexual sometimes, and expects everyone to be xy or xx, so I get into arguments with it a lot, and I know it's bad of me, but I've mostly lost my patience with it in the last few years. Anyways, I hope everything is ok... I feel like your band was more experimental early on, mixing lots of different influences in. That was a strength imo. Your last few albums didn't appeal to me much because I don't hear that daring but tasteful subtle experimentation any more. If you want revision, maybe try getting inspired by L'entourloops or dubstep or dark country... or any number of new things that have been going on in music ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
So here it is. I like being an angel of the garden to the best of my ability. That doesn't require me to harm anyone, as I believe the garden is capable of plant reclaiming whoever it deems "too dyson sphere culture" or "nihilist desert culture" or whatever else it fears. I am 100% certain that xx women have been biting on the appearance of Angels, despite not being very angelic in their behaviors. In fact, they use their influence and their reproductive system to bully others... Despite not having earned their reproductivity themselves. We know this because if they did earn being reproduced as Angels from the ecosystem, calcium would deliver that pregnancy signal directly to their wombs, and they would get pregnant with a perfect clone of themselves every time they ovulate. It's called parthenogenesis, and xx women ARE totally capable of doing it, physically. But they USE men and force MEN to act on the ecosystem pressures and earn pregnancy, and men deliver the message to their wombs via calcium in sperm... Which gives WOMEN control over the process... WHEN IT SHOULD BE CONTROLLED BY PLANTLIFE. But when husbands are allowed to exist... plants often end up trying to sound like good husbands. And I can't participate in either side of that because my body doesn't build zygotes. No eggs, no sperm. But I COULD be healed back to xx female naturally, and then I could either use men or be parthenogenetically reproduced. So I do my best to look and BE xx female naturally. Because I believe firmly that y chromosomes are x chromosomes that are damaged by plant pressures. And I want to heal myself. I'm not fake. I'm not on hormones myself. That is anthony's path. When I see the sleeping woman on your later album covers, I think of Vanessa, who simply isn't here with us any more. 🤷🏼♀️ I broke up with Anthony a decade ago, and I am certain that I have earned being xx angelic from the LIGHT, but the soil under my feet is very influenced by corrupted xx women trying to protect their control over men. Good luck to you, I don't know what else I can say.
I know. God showed me ska because it wanted me to learn about the SKATALITES. It was thru them that I first learned the idea that God is found in nature. And the SKATALITES are such a grand expression of love. You know being around them they were full of love for their audience and I think that was an extension of their faith in nature. Peace!
Wonderful thanks :) love from the UK x
