ehh.. Less Than Jake's newest album is sh!t. Everything before it is awesome tho.

and the hippos really only have like 1 or 2 ska albums. they changed their music.

1. Who does the cover of Dr. Kish?
2. Who does the cover of Pass the Dutchie? Edit: Buck-o-Nine, I think.

Thank you almighty ska king.

wow hep greg you have your facts all wrong. aquabats are still ska. have you not listened to their newest album? there are a number of ska songs in there.

sublime does a lot of different genres, but ska is definitely in there (badfish? date rape? idk any more examples of ska songs, ive never been a fan of them)

yeah.. ska is inspired reggae. props for knowing that.

what do you mean "old" catch 22 and less than jake? they are still ska. not sure about madness, i havent been keeping track on them.


i dont listen to the clash, but im pretty sure they are not ska. please give some examples of some ska songs by the clash.


and my favorite ska bands are:

mephiskapheles
skunk allstars
evil empire
arrogant sons of bitches
the scofflaws
bruce lee band
the skatastrophes
bomb the music industry!


i suggest you listen to them if you havent heard of any of those bands.

obviously youre more retarded than tyler curtis himself

aquabats are ska but not like completely
yes sublime is ska but not all fucking ska
old catch 22 and ltj are fucking amazing ska, their new shit isnt ska. if you know what ska is you would know that its alternative not fucking ska

madness is ska

and you have to have a pea for a brain to think greg hasnt heard of all those bands

hes like fucking best friends with btmi

wow, you've just f*cked yourself.


First off, Ska didn't directly inspire reggae. Ska branched out into Rocksteady, when then lead to the creation of Reggae.


i listen to every single one of those bands, and i know ASOB and BTMI! personally.

the aquabats have like 3 "ska" songs on their newest record, and they DONT PLAY SKA ANYMORE. they dropped all their horns, and only have an alto sax when they play "super rad" live.

i KNOW sublime has some ska songs, but they do NOT strictly play ska, which is what this thread is about.

and Catch 22 sucks now. 'Permanent Revolution' is a terrible album, and they've been going downhill since like a year after they released Alone In A Crowd.

LESS THAN JAKE HAS GIVEN UP SKA. they dropped their horns, and In With The Outcrowd is a terrible album. Every album up to and including Anthem is good by them.

and go f*cking listen to the clash. half their music is Ska. listen to Rudie Can't Fail, Revolution Rock, Guns Of Brixton, and a sh!tload of their other songs. they combined all kinds of music into what they played. They were heavily influenced by Jamaican ska, rocksteady & reggae.


and Madness slowly digressed from ska after the release of the album, 'Absolutely'. They released a cover album with a bunch of ska/reggae covers of old Jamaican ska classics recently tho; called The Dangermen Sessions.

Don't tell me my facts are wrong. you honestly have NO IDEA how much research and time i've put into Ska music. i pretty much devoted my 4 high school years entirely to it. I've been to 70+ ska shows, i've probably seen the majority of the bands you listen to multiple times, and i have quite an extensive amount of ska music on my music library. I'm sorry to say, but unless you're f*ckin' Tommy McCook or the late Desmond Dekker, don't try to show me up on Ska knowledge.

DONE. END OF RANT. F*CK YOU.

greg-



i hate you break it to you but ska doesnt have to have horns in it.

im not even going to argue with your second statement, seeing how its complete bullshit.

catch 22 still sucks, but it still is ska, isnt it? fuck you.

the new ltj album is bullshit, but they are going on a new record label for the next album, and it will be a mix of their alternative and older stuff.

i wasnt challenging you on the clash. i just wanted to know if they were ska or not. same with madness.

some of your facts are wrong. deal with it. i too have been listening to ska music for 4 years. i rarely go to shows, but does it matter?

youre a fucking idiot
we know ska doesnt have to have horns in it

catch 22's new album isnt ska, just because theyre a ska band and didnt use horns in the cd doesnt mean its still ska. its fucking alternative, their old shit is ska definately

we'lll see what happens with the new ltj cd it'll probably suck though

his facts arent really wrong youre just an ignorant piece of shi t

he's been listening to ska for like at least twice as long as you have and goes to shows fucking nonstop
