"17 Reasons" is the debut LP by Link 80, released through Asian Man Records. This energetic album fuses punk rock with ska and hardcore influences, delivering a raw and passionate sound that defined the late '90s East Bay scene. The record features fast-paced rhythms, powerful horn sections, and socially conscious lyrics that tackle themes of unity, frustration, and hope. Link 80 quickly gained recognition for their intense live performances and genre-blending style. Their impact on the punk-ska movement remains significant even decades later. Link 80 was formed in San Francisco?s East Bay area in the mid-1990s. Known for their relentless energy both on stage and in recordings, they became a staple of the local underground music community. With "17 Reasons," they established themselves as innovators within third-wave ska-punk?earning respect from fans worldwide. Asian Man Records is an independent label founded by Mike Park in 1996. Renowned for its DIY ethic and commitment to supporting diverse voices within punk, ska, indie rock, and more; Asian Man has launched or nurtured numerous influential bands such as Alkaline Trio, Less Than Jake, The Lawrence Arms?and of course Link 80 itself.
