Ska?

Grey_souL · Posted: Sun Jul 09, 2006 1:10 am Post subject: Ska?

So, who here likes ska? Ya know, checkerboard and trumpets and that crap. Personally, I love it. I find bands such as catch 22 and Reel Big Fish a refreshing break from emo-ness, and it's great music to run around and act like a dumbass to. I can't find a single reason not to like it. It's not mainstream enough so my emo friends will listen to it, and it rocks hard enough my classic rock friends like it. Anybody else concur, or disagree?

I like Sublime. Sublime is nice.
I haven't delved deeply into the world of ska yet. It's interesting.

Not a big fan, it just doesn't have whatI'm looking for.

Ska makes me very happy. Try listening to the Aggrolites, The Slackers, Mad Caddies. There's lots of other good ska bands out there.

Hmmmm....I hate ska. PFFT! I lie! I love ska. Reel Big Fish and No Doubt.
I like the song You Don't Know, by Reel Big Fish. That's my favorite! I dance like a moron to it.

Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra. Alot find their instrumental stuff to be an aqquired taste, but when paired up with talented vocalists (Shiina Ringo <3) they're [i]awesome[/i].

They also did the music for Lupin the III.

I actually like The Assorted Jelly Beans and The Suicide Machines. Dead Neighbors is a cool song.

Ska is awesome!!! ^_^ But man, you sure have nerve! I just started a freaking ska-topic! Or did I start after you? At least I didn´t notice this topic... Anyway, I like Reel Big Fish, Less Than Jake, The Hippos and Suburban Legends.
