Potshot were a six-piece spitfire ska-punk behave from Tokyo, whose lyrics were goddamn out in just intelligible English and whose barefaced ska horns were from some other satellite. Their legal was unequalled, just with similarities to bands like Screeching Weasel, Operation Ivy, and Bad Manners. Potshot's crowing pop sound was catchy and infectious, littered with "oohs" and "ahhs" to go with the standard ska weep of "Oi-Oi-Oi!" California-based Asian Man Records released their debut uncut, Pots and Shots, in 1997 and followed up deuce years afterward with Rock 'n' Roll. Their one-third elbow grease, Til I Die, was out making waves in Japan for over a year earlier its U.S. tone conclusion in October 2000. A Go Go appeared future in 2002, the same year Dance to the Potshot Record appeared in Japan. The latter record album was at long last released on U.S. territory in 2004 with two extra bonus tracks. In Japan during May 2005, Potshot released their last album, entitled Potshot Beat Goes On, on TV Freak Records. They called it quits that same year, playing a last prove in Tokyo in September 2005.
