Pick It Up!: Ska in the '90s

This movie is such a wonderful love letter to any ska fan. It's got all the names and faces you've grown to love, just talking about how magical ska is. Pick it up now!

Absolutely loved this movie. Have seen plenty of documentaries about 1st wave ska and how the music was started. But have yet to see any documentary with ska bands from this erra. So well put together as well. If you are into ska, punk, oi any kind of subgenre within this music scene you need to watch this movie!

Such an awesome documentary! It is super cool to see all these great bands again. Thanks a lot for putting all your work in creating this docu!

It's been a long time coming for a documentary on third wave sk, and I sat down with a lot of excitement to watch this. However as it went on it became clear that for a ska fan it was just another documentary about its origins, and how it developed into the mainstream. There felt like a lot of bands missing who made a big impact and as usual stuck to the same old like less than Jake, bosstones, mustard plug etc. There was also no reference to the UK third wave scene which had a huge influence on the USA scene in the later 90s and early 00s such as farse, capdown, random hand. And would have also been great to have covered the Christian scene with bands such as five iron frenzy and oc supertones.

I absolutely love this ska-cumentary! It is a great summary of the history of ska and the prevalence of the ska boom during the 90's, and it also offers a great glimpse of what the future holds in store. I would show this movie to anyone who loves ska and anyone who loves someone who loves ska (like my husband)! It has a great sense of humor and is worth watching again and again. Pick It Up!
