hey all
i've just really got into ska recently, i mean i've listened to it before, but now i love and can't get it out my head,
the only problem is that i only really know of 3, kids can't fly, fanadangle and reel big fish! if you guys could recomend some more ska bands it would be great
Thanks all

That's not Ska. Though Reel Big Fish aint bad live.
This is and excellent example of Ska proper :thumb:

They were the best. Hands down.
I used to listen to Millencolin a lot. They are pretty good too.

Nuff said. Check out some of the other ska bands in their top friends too. Pie Tasters are fuck'n sick too.
I like all types of ska! skapunk, skacore, trad ska
My fav bands have to be: Lightyear, Capdown, King Prawn, Sublime, Save Ferris, Goldfinger (both their ska and punk stuff) and also Mad Caddies
The 3rd wave scene has kinda died down a bit now (it was best around 2000-2003) but there is still good music goin on, and some bands like Lightyear are even reforming
This is a funny song by Propagandhi- Ska Sucks
