There were quite a few ska-punk bands in the ’90s. Perhaps none, though, were more out there than Northern California’s Janitors Against Apartheid. The act was a wild group that played hyper-fast ska and had a singer who sang about Punky Brewster and Little Caesars in a demented Kermit the Frog voice. And the stage show was completely unhinged (often featuring the destruction of stuffed animals).
This week on In Defense of Ska, sax player and eventual lead vocalist of Janitors Against Apartheid Lodge Worster joins the podcast to dive into the band’s wild antics. He shares insights into the group’s origins, history, and ultimate transformation into The Adjustments. Listen above, or wherever you get your podcasts.
He also discusses the punk television script that he’s working on with In Defense of Ska host Aaron Carnes (hey, would you look at that!). Plus, he chats about his work as a music editor for film and television projects, sneaking ska songs into your favorite shows and movies.
