**GRNDL** :
I grew up on Ska, but its never been “a big thing” for me. That slot was filled with metal and punk. Notable mentions though: Madness, Bad Manners, English Beat, some Mr. Bungle. Recently: Mighty Bosstones, Skaface.
I’m waiting for the Ska-black metal crossover revolution. 🙂
For some reason I want to mention “Skindred” but I guess they’re not classified as Ska… /shrug

I was told that skindrid is like death metal reggae type music. Sounds fairly wrong.
What is ska anyway?

**Perv** :
I like all sorts from The Kinks to Richie Hawtin Techno, I like the Specials, Message to U Rudy is me fave. Madness are great. Dont think I’ve met anyone who doesnt like Ska stuff, it may not be that popular but everyone can stand it I think
Not a metal fan but like Metallicas old stuff

**Ingrown** :
Ska-metal fusion with double bass pedal, generally a fair bit faster too, still fairly smooth though. Does it for me
