Their first release was on their own Fork In Hand Records label, but have since teamed with Springman Records and Side One Dummy. The band has been noted for its uncommon strict DIY work ethic, such as engineering, producing, and releasing their own albums and videos and self promotion of their own shows. In 1999, they won Boston Music Awards distinction of "Outstanding Ska Band." In 2000 the band recorded a Gangsta Rap album and distributed it un-officially via cassette tape. In 2003 the album was officially released on CD through Fork In Hand. They have toured on an average of 200 shows a year in support of such bands as Streetlight Ma
