The Mighty Mighty BosstonesThe Mighty Mighty Bosstones were a ska-core band from Boston, Massachusetts ('Bosstones' being a play on 'Boston'). They are credited, along with bands such as Operation Ivy and The Suicide Machines, with creating the ska-core genre, a form of ska punk that mixes to various degrees elements of modern third-wave ska along with Hardcore punk. The Bosstones started playing in Boston clubs in the mid-1980's. After a brief period of inactivity due to schooling commitments by band members, the Bosstones reformed and released their Devil's Night Out album on Taang! Records. The band continued to release albums, and was signed to Mercury Records. In 1997, the success of their single "The Impression That I Get" earned them mainstream recognition. The Bosstones released their last album on SideOneDummy Records in 2002, before breaking up to pursue other interests. Lead singer Dicky Barrett is now an announcer on ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live" and hosts the "Morning Mighty Show" on Los Angeles radio's Indie 103.1 FM .
