Recommend me some ska bands.

[THEMILKMAN]

I've recently been experiencing a resurgance of my appreciation in ska music of late and I'd just like to know what ska bands do my fellow Escapists like to listen to?

A few of the bands I already know of and enjoy:
Suburban Legends
No Doubt
Reel Big Fish
Sublime
The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
The Arrogant Sons of Bitches
Mustard Plug
Goldfinger
Long Beach Dub Allstars

 

[PayneTrayne]

Streetlight Manifesto. Get them in your ears now.

Also, Oreskaband is pretty decent, as well as The Johnstones.

THe W's are fun.

Streetlight Manifesto. Get them in your ears now.

Also, Oreskaband is pretty decent, as well as The Johnstones.

Aww, you stole Streetlight AAANNNDDD Ore. Both of those I was going to suggest.

Anyway, they are pretty much the best in my eyes.


IDK if you'll like it, it's a little off-ska, but W/IFS is one of my other favorite alternative-genre bands.

Ska is really terrible you should listen to something that I personally think is better.
