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.

Seguimos En Pie
Ska-P Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No quieres sentir, no quieres ver, no quieres escuchar,
La fuerza del poder y del capital desgarrará tu condición
Estamos aquí nos hacemos ver todos contra el poder
Tened fé, seguimos en pie,
La topía es una cerveza fría , bebed
Para calmar vuestra sed
Tened fé, seguimos en pie
Rebeldía, yo nunca me arrodillaré
Muy pronto va a amanecer
Pobre colgao antisocial, que no entiende este cacao
No tiene nación ni vocación, solo busca la razón
La conformidad de esta sociedad ante la vil barbaridad
Me hare pensar, me hare meditar, es el camino a no llevar
Tened fé, seguimos en pie
Rebeldía, yo nunca me arrodillaré
Muy pronto va a amanecer
Seguimos en pie, seguimos en pie
Bailando este reggae seguimos en pie
Tanto tienes, tanto vales, nada tienes nada vales
Tanto tienes, tanto vales, es la hija de puta y cruel verdad
Tanto tienes, tanto vales, es la hija de puta y cruel verdad
No creo en políticos ni en militares, sólo creo en ti,
No creo en banderas, no creo en fronteras, sólo creo en mi
Tened fé, seguimos en pie
La utopía es una cerveza fría, bebed
Para calmar vuestra sed
Tened fé, seguimos en pie
Rebeldía ,yo nunca me arrodillaré
Muy pronto va a amanecer
Seguimos en pie, seguimos en pie
Bailando este reggae seguimos en pie
Tanto tienes, tanto vales, nada tienes, nada vales
The lyrics of Ska-P's song Seguimos En Pie convey the band's refusal to become complacent in the face of societal oppression and injustice. The song encourages its listeners to reject mediocrity and to instead resist the forces of power and capital which seek to control and oppress them. The lyrics also criticize societal conformity in the face of atrocities, and emphasize the importance of individual thought and resistance. Despite the difficulties of the fight against systemic injustice, the song insists that its listeners should have faith in themselves and continue to resist.
The first verse of the song denounces mediocrity and encourages the listener to reject conformist attitudes. The forceful tug of power and capital is depicted as capable of tearing down one's very identity. However, the chorus emphasizes the importance of faith and perseverance in fighting against these forces of oppression. The lyrics state that the utopia they seek is a cold beer and that they will not bow down or submit to dominant systems that seek to keep them in a state of subjugation. The lyrics of the song assert that Ska-P believes in resistance and believes in the power of the individual to effect change.

Porque el que murió luchando
vive en cada compañero
Por nuestros muertos
ni un minuto de silencio
Toda una vida en combate
Hasta cuando? Hasta siempre
Hasta donde? Hasta la vistoria y si es preciso hasta la MUERTE
Colombia RESISTE!!
Latinoamerica DESPIERTA!!
