Song of the Day: Not for the Crowd - Gain Back Lost Youth

By in News | 1 Comment

Not for the Crowd was one of the few Christian ska bands who didn’t go the third wave/ska-core/ska-punk fusion route, instead focusing on more traditional and/or two-tone style ska sounds. In this they shared some similarities with The Israelites, except NFTC featured faster tempos.

Sadly, I don’t know anything about this band–where they were from, who the members were, or anything of the sort. I first heard of them through a few ska compilations in the late 90s, and IVM’s own “Ska Lives” series. I only recently discovered that the band had released an 8-song album in 1997 called Morningstar Radio Hour for indie label Morningstar Records.

Today’s SOTD is upbeat and features a wide variety of instrumentation including organ in addition to guitar/bass/drums and the horn section.

Enjoy!
