    Ska is amazing

    Goldfinger and Catch 22 are my fav ska bands

    although the song "We dont play ska anymore" by NOFX is hilarious haha

    My moms friend used to be in a ska band, and my friend plays trumpet and bass in a band that plays some ska

    How can you not like ska, its a form of punk, and no one can not like punk








    and no, good charlotte is not punk

    Ska is not a form of punk. Ska came into existance in the 1950s in Jamaica, 20 years before punk was ever realized. During the second popular wave of ska music in the 1970s (called Two-Tone, linked to the type of music played and the style incorporated with the music, black and white for racial equality), punk bands from the UK took on ska type upstrokes on the downbeat of their music. This can be seen with Madness, The Beat, The Specials and so forth.


    Anyway...
    Ska is amazing, and it gave birth to so much.
    Without ska, there is no:
    Rocksteady
    Reggae
    Dub
    and Hip Hop would not be what it is today.

    Think twice before you talk shit on any type of music.

    What are you talking about. Third wave ska is more punkish, but there's still a lot of artists that sound more traditional. Two tone ska sounds even less like punk most of the time and first wave was around before punk existed.

    It's ska-ish. But it's not a very good song in my opinion.
