|          Mike Park is one of the kingpins of the third wave ska revival. He  |
|          was the singer in Skankin' Pickle and formed Asian Man Records.     |
|          Maybe the last thing one might expect from Park on his debut solo   |
|          album is low-key acoustic folk-pop in the style of early Elliott    |
|          Smith or the New Amsterdams. That's what For the Love of Music is,  |
|          though. Park's rich voice is backed by acoustic guitars (with the   |
|          occasional hushed electric guitar) and minimal percussion as he     |
|          works his way through ten very personal songs that deal with        |
|          racism in the ska and mod scenes ("Supposed to Be There Soon"),     |
|          old-school racism ("From Korea"), getting older ("Counting          |
|          Sheep"), and family junk ("Present Day Memories"). The songs have   |
|          winning melodies and the political lyrics aren't as clunky as they  |
|          could have been. Park has a punk inflection to his vocals that      |
|          Smith never had; many of the tracks here (like the righteous        |
|          "Challenging Me" or "Hey You!") would be great punk anthems if      |
|          fleshed out by a full-band attack. Park does a good job of          |
|          transferring his ska-punk energy and commitment to the              |
|          stripped-down bedroom sound, and fans of his older music should be  |
|          able to make the transition right along with Park smoothly.         |
|                                                                              |
