Push ‘N Shove – Anniversary Edition (Yellow & Ruby Red Vinyl) [RSD 4/12/25]

25th Anniversary limited edition color reissue of Hepcat’s most recent studio album, Push ‘N Shove. Though Push ‘n’ Shove emerged from the Hepcat hepsters in the summer of 2000, it sounds like a long-lost ska classic. They nail the old-school sound with dead-eye precision, but still, somehow, it never sounds derivative. The laid back, low-key groove of “Daydreamin'” and “Gimme Little Sign” are a refreshing reminder of ska’s original power in days of frenetic ska poseurs. What a treat. -Tod Nelson
