''Borders & Boundaries'' is the fourth studio album by ska punk band Less Than Jake. It was released October 24, 2000 on Fat Wreck Chords. The album was recorded at Grand Master Studios in Hollywood, CA, with producer Steve Kravac, and is the final studio album to feature saxophonist Derron Nuhfer and trombonist Pete Anna. == Overview == The cover art features a map of the area around their home city of Gainesville, Florida, while the booklet "cover" art features a photograph of trombonist Pete Anna saluting the Statue of Liberty. Included on some copies is a spinning wheel which tells you the distance between Gainesville and eight places around the world; Sydney, Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle, Tokyo, London, Paramus, NJ, and Ljubljana, Slovenia. After recording had concluded, the album was originally slated to be released on Capitol Records. There are conflicting reports over whether Capitol Records decided not to release the album, or the band simply wishes to be freed from their contract with the label. Regardless, both sides were unhappy with the association, and the two parted ways. Less Than Jake bought the rights to the album, and released it on Fat Wreck Chords. The band's drummer, Vinnie Fiorello, wrote about the matter on the linear-notes for Fat Wreck's 2009 greatest hits album, ''Wrecktrospective'': :"We recorded a full length for (Records ) while the whole company got replaced, fired, or re-arranged, and in the process the new president there gave us the option of staying or going and taking the record with us. () When we found out () about the possibility of our departure, there was only one label we wanted to go to and that was Fat. It was obvious to all of us that they were the perfect label for our band at that precise time." The album's lone video single, "Gainesville Rock City," received airtime on MTV2, and has gone on to become one of the band's signature songs. "Look What Happened" received minor airplay on college radio stations. "Look What Happened" also appears on the band's next album, ''Anthem'', in a re-recorded state. The album reached #103 in the Billboard charts.〔AllMusic Charts: (Borders & Boundaries ) Accessed 19 October 2007〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Borders & Boundaries」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
