In the early 1960s, ska was the dominant musical genre of Jamaica, and it was also popular with British mods. Read more…|Edit this Artist photo: 東京スカパラダイスオーケストラ

Oh GOD yes, I love the ska. Cherry Poppin' Daddies baited me into loving this and new swing too.

Sublime, Reel Big Fish or Catch 22... I agree, they are good. Maybe even great. But I don't like them, just like the rest of american ska punk bands (with the exception of Streetlight Manifesto)... I don't know why... maybe It's because I live in Europe? Maybe their style/lyrics are... alien to me?
