The Code are a politically charged ska-punk band from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, active primarily in the early 2000s. Known for their energetic blend of punk rock, ska, and hardcore influences, The Code stood out for their socially conscious lyrics, tackling themes of political activism, social justice, and anti-establishment views. The band formed in the late 1990s and quickly made a name for themselves in the underground punk and ska scenes. Their music combined the danceable rhythms of ska with the raw intensity of punk and hardcore, making them a favorite among fans who appreciated both genres. Unlike many ska-punk bands that leaned into humor and party themes, The Code focused on serious, thought-provoking topics, much like bands such as Anti-Flag (with whom they often shared the stage).

Their music continues to be appreciated by fans of politically charged punk and socially conscious ska.
