The Skoidats’ twin obsessions with beer and making party-time ska punk resurface on their 1999 album Cure For What Ales You. “R’aggro,” “Happy Drunk,” “Night Of The Droogs,” a live version of “Running and “Battle Of Breckenridge” are some of the highlights of this energetic collection. Though it’s somewhat lengthy at 17 tracks, Cure For What Ales You is a strong follow-up to The Times. – Heather Phares
