The Slackers – Married Girl
I recently found this ridiculous “music video” that I made with Vic Ruggiero while going through some old tapes… It’s for a song by The Slackers called “Married Girl” It was shot on 16mm color reversal film about 6 years or so ago…
Enjoy!!

I’m wondering how much you actually know about ska to say something like that…
Also, trivia (just for fun): Leftover Crack and this band have the same drummer (Ara Babajian).
oh hell yeah
That’s insane.. I keep finding this random shit out just like the drummer from the World/Inferno Friendship Society is also the drummer of the Dresden Dolls.
eh.. i prefer desmond dekker, laurel aitken, madness, the special, skatalites, the toasters, that kinda thingggg
ew! madness and the specials!? kudos for your other choices but two tone is awful. it was the worst wave of ska.
also, the slackers are greatly inspired by the bands you listed. if you like them, you should like this.
for real? thats cool. love both the bands.
1st wave (traditional jamaican ska, 50s-60s):
Desmond Dekker
Bob Marley and the Wailers
The Skatalites
2 tone ska (British ska revival,70s-80s):
The Specials
The English Beat
Madness
3rd Wave (American ska-punk, late 80s-present):
Reel Big Fish
Streetlight Manifesto
Suburban Legends
Skankin Pickle
The Cat Empire (not “pure” ska, but a really sick mix of ska, reggae, funk, latin, and jazz from Australia)
great song, great band
thanks for posting this
I love this song more than I love my mother.
Yep, Also
1st wave:prince buster
revival:the toasters
3rd wave:mustard plug, less than jake
there are tons more though
haha, me too !!
its not ridiculous
Someone should post more slackers videos
someone should post more slackers videos its mostly live post on you tube which is good but there should be also more in studio recorded songs which i can play when my friends have shitty rap music on and i want to hear my favorite slackers songs. GET ON IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
someone should post more slackers videos cuz the slackers videos online now are mostly live
very nice =)
ANd then you know I’ll never see you…. Why are they so fucking awesome? Thank you Hellcat!!!!
this is my song pretty much right now…i’m not a married girl im the other one
lol
omg, great song.
this is true love for music
its a song from the heart, sounds corny but so true
srry bout my bad english xD
great song… i could listen to this all day for a coupe of days… glad i ran into this
whats their best album?
“The Boss Harmony Sessions” is their best one.
“A Minha Menina” and “Wanted Man” are the best songs on that album.
“Peculiar” is second.
I like how I’ve never heard a bad song from these guys I can basically put on any cd from them and it will be kickass.
