Damn, I didn't realize I was ska until just now. I in fact have a trumpet and a coronet. And the first live show I ever got high at was Skankin Pickle touring Skafunkrastapunk. Somehow completely unrelated I ended up with their bass drum kick pedal about a year and a half later. I don't even listen to ska though. But the attitude is all mine!

What -core is "I haven't slept in a week for non-meth reasons so here's wonderwall" (I never learned to play wonderwall)?

[–] Jayjader@jlai.lu 2 points 2 hours ago

I don't know what the exact genre name is but Opeth's Eternal Rains Will Come comes to mind

Death Metal: RAARRRAOARAAAGHHH (booklet with the lyrics probably says "world is broken let's fuck shit up" )

"Ska is what a 13 year old hears in their head when they are told they are getting free mozzarella sticks."

Grunge: "The world is broken, and so am I. But there's nothing we can do about it so let's just fuck."

[–] kshade@lemmy.world 11 points 10 hours ago

“Ska is what a 13 year old hears in their head when they are told they are getting free mozzarella sticks.”

I always think of this song by 7 seconds of love when I read that. Pretty much sums it up.

[–] SARGE@startrek.website 24 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago) (17 children)

Open question to the floor: what is the most "Ska" song I could send to someone? Like the most iconic or the most stereotypical "Ska" a song could possibly be.

Edit: I've got some listening to do, thanks for the responses, keep them coming! I've never heard of half these bands, and while Ska isn't usually my thing I definitely vibe with some of them.

[–] NachBarcelona@piefed.social 2 points 4 hours ago

Legalization by skap

[–] protist@mander.xyz 14 points 10 hours ago

For the 90s ska revival, I think Reel Big Fish takes the cake for most ska-ish ska band

[–] Ragallos@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 9 hours ago

Commenting both to track these Ska recommendations, I fucking love Ska. But also to recommend Life Sucks...Let's Dance by Reel Big Fish, to my that song really hits the nail on the head in a cliché way. I constantly tell my wife, who reminds me I tell her that every time we are listening to it lol

[–] meh@piefed.blahaj.zone 5 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Modern Ska i'd say

Flying Raccoon Suit afterglow

We Are The Union Out Of Patience

Half Past Two Barrier For Entry

of the older stuff, a few greats i havent seen mentione yet would be

Against All Authority All Fall Down

Link 80 enough

[–] axx@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 hours ago

AAA and Link80 are very much not "the most ska", they are very hardcore leanleaning ska, which is really a few steps too farfar from The Specials or Toots and the Maytals to be a good introduction to ska.

[–] saigot@lemmy.ca 7 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Streetlight manifesto is probably one of the more popular ska bands: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOqenYis1iQ

[–] AzuranAurora@piefed.ca 5 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Streetlight fucking slaps. I can't name a bad song of theirs.

[–] VoteNixon2016@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 8 hours ago

We're getting a new album sometime totally soon, for real this time, and they still won't have a bad song

[–] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 10 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

Millie Small's ‘My Boy Lollipop’ from 1964 is the original ska song that made the genre popular outside Jamaica.

Of the second-wave aka two-tone ska: The Selecter's ‘On My Radio’, Madness' ‘Night Boat To Cairo’, The Specials' ‘A Message To You Rudy’.

[–] Godort@lemmy.ca 10 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

It's not the best ska song by a country mile, but it's definitely the most ska song. At least as far as third wave goes.

[–] n0respect@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 1 hour ago)

surprised this isnt #1. Def the most stereotypical and well known ska song

for the lazy, it's The Impression that I get

[–] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 3 points 8 hours ago

Definitely the first one I thought of. If you're going by most well known, and recognizably ska, then yes this.

3/4ths of these are just punk subgenres lol

[–] NachBarcelona@piefed.social 2 points 4 hours ago

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 25 points 14 hours ago

Nu metal is bipolar. Its either "the world is broken but ignore it with the help of a song that has no right to be this groovy" or "the world is broken and thats why im setting the whole fucking place on fire including myself"
