Posted June 24, 200916 yr http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3228/2983572716_dd03310485.jpg Streetlight Manifesto is an American ska punk band from East Brunswick Township, New Jersey under the creative leadership of Tomas Kalnoky. They released their first album, Everything Goes Numb, which was distributed by Victory Records, on August 26, 2003. The band headlined and sold out their first concert at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey on December 9, 2003. Several of Streetlight Manifesto's members were well known in the New Jersey third wave ska community for their roles in past ska punk bands from that area, primarily Kalnoky's Catch 22 and fellow New Jersey band One Cool Guy. As of 2007, the lineup consists of Mike Brown on alto and baritone sax, Jim Conti on alto and tenor sax, songwriter Tomas Kalnoky on guitar and lead vocals, bassist Peter McCullough, trombonist Mike Soprano, trumpet player Matt Stewart, and Chris Thatcher on drums. must hear tracks...

Everything Goes Numb http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/cb/Streetlight_Manifesto_-_Everything_Goes_Numb.jpg Everything Goes Numb is the first full length album by musical group Streetlight Manifesto. It is seen as a natural progression from Catch 22's Keasbey Nights (1998), as Tomas Kalnoky, the lead singer, guitarist and songwriter, performed the same duties in Catch 22 before leaving after Keasbey Nights to concentrate on his college education. The lyrics of the album deal with subjects like suicide, robbery, and social outcasts. It is also the second chapter in the Keasbey Nights Trilogy, once referred to as The Keasbey Diaries in the A Call to Arms (2001) booklet. tracklisting (key tracks in bold): 1.
