Common Rider was a ska punk band, formed in 1999 by Jesse Michaels (guitar, vocals), Mass Giorgini (bass) and Dan Lumley (drums). The band's name is taken from a Japanese TV show, Kamen Rider (Kamen Rider means "Masked Rider" in Japanese.) Jesse Michaels is most well known as the vocalist for the ska punk band Operation Ivy. In late 2008, Michaels emerged with a new band named Classics of Love, after the Common Rider song.
Common Rider released their debut album, Last Wave Rockers in 1999 and Classics Of Love is the opening track on this album. It sets the tone for the entire album, with its reggae groove, punk rock raps, and rockin chourus.
