  Common Rider: This Is Unity Music - PopMatters Music Review
Unlike Big Rig, Common Rider was going to be a real band, which would do more than just release an EP and disappear.
Emphatically ending any debates of who put the ska into Operation Ivy's sound, Common Rider are closer in sound to the Wailers or the Skatalites than Minor Threat or Sham 69.
The hardest thing about listening to Common Rider is that, because of their roots, it is too easy to hear what they aren't, as opposed to what they are.

Common Rider is in the middle of their short set at this year's Charlotte, NC Plea For Peace stop.
During the ten year break between Op Ivy and Common Rider, he went through the obligatory soul searching of the typical 20something individual.
And on this night in Charlotte, beneath the lights, before the crowd, Common Rider kicks into "Small Pebble," and Michaels loses himself in the music--his home, where he belongs.

Common Rider are destined to be pigeonholed as Jesse Michaels’ first significant band since the dissolution of Operation Ivy, the seminal Berkeley Ska/punk aggregation that featured Michaels on vox, as well as future Rancid hot-shots Tim Armstrong and Matt Freeman.
In his Op Ivy role, Michaels raspy delivery was the clarion call for a new-breed of socially and politically-aware hardcore, one that would eventually infiltrate the mainstream and birth a highly lucrative subculture.
In between Op Ivy and Common Rider, Michaels dabbled in an outfit called Big Rig whom were fully devoid of any ska influence whatsoever, and while they were more the better for it, it’s only reasonable that the man in question gets around to revisiting his roots on This Is Unity Music.

 Ink 19 :: Common Rider
But I did manage to come through it, and I think that some of the positivity on the Common Rider record is because of that.
The design on the Common Rider record is incredibly simple, which was my exact intention, because I wanted to do something totally different.
On the Common Rider record, you wrote all of the lyrics, and for the first time, music.

 Common Rider - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Common Rider was a ska punk band, formed in 1999 by Jesse Michaels (guitar, vocals), Mass Giorgini (bass) and Dan Lumley (drums).
The band had a much softer note than that of Michaels's first group, Operation Ivy, but still contained the same amount of energy and passion.

So of course I then went to Common Rider, expecting fast Op Iv style punk/ska songs but I was shocked at hearing calm, light ska/reggae sound.
Most people trash Common Rider because it is not Operation Ivy, even though it has the same singer.
Common Rider also makes good use of progression, as the music tends to pick up or effects are added around the chorus.

 COMMON RIDER   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
The amazing punk rock legend JESSE MICHAELS (former OPIVY)was kind enough to sit down and talk about his new band Common Rider with ALL AGES while he took part in the Plea For Peace Tour last year.
Common Rider has since broke up whitch makes this show as his last for now and made his performance that much more amazing.
Probably at least in terms of musicianship, however they adjust their style to play with Common Rider.

 In Music We Trust - Common Rider: This Is Unity Music
Jesse Michaels, best known as the vocalist/lyricist for influential East Bay ska-punk outfit Operation Ivy, and his band, Common Rider (Dan Lumley and Mass Giorgini), released their debut in 1999 on Panic Button Records.
After recording a full-length and playing very sporadically, Common Rider went back to the drawing board, probably the best thing they could do, to write their next full-length.
Though still very much in the learning stages, Common Rider is still trying to find their sound, but are much better this time around at going about it.

 Lookout Records - LK271 Common Rider Thief In A Sleeping Town
This vinyl EP is the first follow-up to COMMON RIDER's 1999 debut LP, "Last Wave Rockers." These 4 songs maintain the ska punk intensity that OPERATION IVY is so loved for.
Common Rider took a lot of guts and passion to create, and regardless of other's opinions, people take an active interest in what Jesse Michaels does...and chances are people will always do so.
Common Rider is a sign that Jessie Micheals lost his mind after Operation IVY broke up.

 Splendid Magazine reviews Common Rider: This Is Unity Music
Following a successful career singing with ska-outfitters Operation Ivy, Jesse Michaels' latest project, Common Rider, retains more of a vintage-punk edge.
His level, throaty shouts keep up the intensity while the guitar-based syncopation remains in the background -- a combination that screams, "The Clash" for practically the entire album.
Common Rider is able to keep up the gritty speed, but within the span of the album's modest 32 minutes, I grew tired and eventually desensitized.

I figured I'd just address the three burning questions on everybody's mind about Common Rider.
He started Common Rider with Dan Lumley and Mass Giorgini from Squirtgun and Screeching Weasel as an outlet for all the songs that had built up in him over the years.
Whereas Op Ivy's appropriately titled Energy consists of short bursts of frantic ideas, Common Rider's songs are a more regular length and are fully developed.

 DOA - Common Rider - Last Wave Rockers
Although from time to time reggae-tinged guitar, organ and piano make appearences, for the most part Common Rider plays straightforward, unoffensive pop.
Too often, Common Rider seems to stray into musical territory ill-suited to its talents.
The reggae-styled crap is a jarring contrast when set next to the little pop jewels that surface intermittently.

Frontman Jesse Michaels wasn't heard from for a while, but eventually moved on to create Common Rider, which released a full-length and an EP on Panic Button before signing with Hopeless for its most recent effort, This is Unity Music.
With Operation Ivy, Jesse Michaels led the way for slews of bands from ska to punk to rock and beyond, breaking much new ground along the way.
Though Common Rider will probably never have that same sort of impact, This is Unity Music shows a band of experienced guys making consistently good music, sure to please both those who fell in love with Operation Ivy and those who never really cared.
