Album Notes:
Greetings and Salutations from Less Than Jake is a compilation album by American ska punk band Less Than Jake, released on October 15, 2012 in the UK and January 8, 2013 in the US. Produced by vocalist and bass guitarist Roger Manganelli, the album combines two previously released EPs, Greetings from Less Than Jake (2011) and Seasons Greetings from Less Than Jake (2012), along with two new tracks recorded during the same sessions.
In the summer of 2011, Less Than Jake released a limited edition EP, entitled Greetings from Less Than Jake, with a follow-up, Seasons Greetings from Less Than Jake, arriving in early 2012. In October 2012, the band decided to combine the two to create a full-length album. The band’s US label, Fat Wreck Chords stated, “Over the last year, Less Than Jake sold a couple of new EPs on tour. Unfortunately, with the reach of the new EPs limited to those who could attend a show, and with some of their strongest material in years, it seemed like a proper album was in order. So the band assembled the two EPs, added two previously unreleased bonus tracks, and re-sequenced everything into one cohesive record, Greetings and Salutations.”
Less Than Jake is an American ska punk band from Gainesville, Florida, formed in 1992. The band consists of Chris DeMakes (vocals, guitar), Roger Manganelli (vocals, bass), Vinnie Fiorello (drums, lyrics), Buddy Schaub (trombone) and Peter “JR” Wasilewski (saxophone).
Less Than Jake released their debut album, Pezcore, in 1995, following a series of independent seven-inch single releases. The band’s subsequent two studio albums, Losing Streak (1996) and Hello Rockview (1998), were released on major label, Capitol Records, leading to increased exposure. The band’s fifth studio album Anthem (2003) was their most commercially successful to date, featuring the singles, “She’s Gonna Break Soon” and “The Science of Selling Yourself Short”.
In 2008 the band founded its own label, Sleep It Off Records, and released its seventh full-length album, GNV FLA. The band has recently stated its preference for EP releases, and independently issued Greetings from Less Than Jake (2011) and its counterpart, Seasons Greetings from Less Than Jake (2012). In late 2012, the band combined the two to create the full-length album, Greetings and Salutations (2012) They are currently working on their new album set to be released in Fall 2013.
