Most of their songs feature an infectious and energic vibe and feature lyrics about non-conformity, criticism of capitalism and racism, and their defense of equal justice, plus taking part in various multicultural, alternative and anti-globalization festivals. Their song "Cannabis", supporting and defending the legalization of said substance, launched them to certain popularity in Spain and parts of Mexico and South America. They also have followers in the UK, The Netherlands, Belgium, Italy, Switzerland, France, Germany, Portugal, and other European countries.

After a wildly successful tour across South America in late 2005, the band decided, in their own words, to "stop for a while". Some of their members went on to form side band projects such as No Relax and The Locos. As time went by without further notices, many Ska-P fans feared the band had been gone for good. On late April 2008 and for the rejoice of their worldwide fans, they announced their return as a band on their official site.

Their new album, "Lágrimas y gozos", was released the 7th of October 2008 and its first single is called "Crimen sollicitationis". The band is going to perform various shows around South America and Europe in November and December.

Maquis
by Ska-P

Sentado en el bordillo del portal
Con la boina calada siempre como el Ché
En verano cumplirá 96
Sus manos destrozadas de currar
Sostienen temblorosas un sucio papel
Un desahucio mas del banco Santander

Mirale, ahí está, hay tanto que agradecer
Sombatió, resistió, se dejó la piel
Deshecho el corazón, en sus ojos brilla la desilusión
Se siente abandonado

Años de violencia y ansiedad
Sufre la razón un golpe militar
Con el puño en alto, no, no pasarán

Un ejercito podrido de fascistas
Contra milicianos dispuestos a pelear
Defendiendo con su vida la libertad

Mírale, ahí está, hay tanto que agradecer
Combatió, resistió, se dejó la piel
La guerra se perdió, el monte es el único consuelo
Guerrillero

Maquis antifascista
Tu casa es el monte, tu patria la libertad
Maquis, nuca se acabó tu guerra
Brillará esa negra estrella en tu corazón

Solo hay una opción, sobrevivir
De los nacionales y la guardia civil
Si te cogen no habrá juicio para ti

Mírale, ahí está, hay tanto que agradecer
Combatió, resistió, se dejó la piel
Valiente luchador, jamás abandonaste el sendero
Guerrillero

Maquis antifascista
Tu casa es el monte, tu patria la libertad
Maquis, nuca se acabó tu guerra
Brillará esa roja estrella en tu corazón
En mi corazón

No pudieron contigo
Ni la guerra ni el fascismo
La lucha continúa
Contra el capitalismo

Maquis antifascista
Tu casa es el monte, tu patria la libertad
Maquis, nuca se acabó tu guerra
Brillará esa negra estrella
Déjala brillar

Oh oh oh oh
La lucha continúa...
