Brainchild of Bim Skala Bim frontman Dan Vitale, Steady Earnest was a bit of a Boston supergroup, including, as it did, members of the Prophets, Ska'd for Life, Dig This!, Skam, the Allstonians, Oddly Enough, and Maelstrom. Although Earnest themselves can confidently be classified as ska, not all the musicians came from that scene, but each shared the same goal, to create a fun, danceable sound that would appeal to a wide audience. Earnest opened their account with a six-song self-titled cassette in 1993, quickly followed by the full-length Out of Line the same year, reprising five tracks off the EP. The album certainly fulfills Earnest's aims; the set is stuffed with upbeat, dance-friendly numbers, in genre-splitting styles guaranteed to appeal to a wide range of musical tastes. The rhythms are unflaggingly ska-based and the brass equally so, a reflection of the members' love of both Jamaican music. - Allmusic
