07.13.09 | Reel Big Fish - I am not a huge ska fun, but these guys are one of the few I like and they are fun. |

07.13.09 | Try A Billion Ernies. They may surprise you.
Also try The Toasters and possibly The W's. The W's are more swing but they are amazing.

07.13.09 | Dude! Much respect for naming A Billion Ernies, clumsy. Those guys are absolutley ridiculous, in a cool way. |

07.13.09 | Ska sucks. 2 is win, though. 3 is much better as a prog rock band. |
Masochist
07.13.09 | As a totally different band, you might try The Ernies. Their first album (self-titled) is ska; rest sort of deviate, but it's all good.
Otherwise, I'd recommend some old Goldfinger. |
Douchebag
07.13.09 | Try 'Madness' and 'The Specials' |
ClearTheLane
07.13.09 | the original KEASBEY NIGHTS! |

Jonnyborg
07.13.09 | Thanks for the recommendations, guys.
As for the Reel Big Fish, they are actually supposed to be on here. I've only got their greatest hits album, good stuff.
@clumsydonkey, I've given The W's a listen before and really couldn't get into them. Might have been the explicitly christian lyrics.
@Goodapollo, Save ferris IS on there.
Also, any of you guys checked out the band Folly? |
Lunarfall
07.13.09 | any band tomas kalnoky is/was in |
thebbqshrimp
07.13.09 | Definitely need to check out The Specials, The Flatliners (their first album, "Destroy To Create"... second album's decent but not really ska/punk), One Cool Guy (another one of the bands Streetlight Manifesto formed out of the ashes of), The Toasters, MU330, Mustard Plug, and Suburban Legends.
...Went through a big ska phase haha. |
Lobotomie

Laurel Aitken
The Slackers
The Skatalites
Link 80 (more like ska/punk I guess)
Skankin' Pickle
The Toasters
... |
