I don't seek out ska to listen to, but every now and again I hear Jamaican Ska, which sounds pretty neat. I do occasionally purposely listen to mento bands, which I think have a great sound and style.

Now if you want a good Kamikaze-themed song...

:inlove: I can't wait for the new album.

*cough* But anyways, I still don't like ska. The only ska song I kinda liked was Relient K's "Five Iron Frenzy is Either Dead or Dying - Ska Version". :- What a joyous message to spread to the masses.

You call this JOY?!?... :cry:

Just watch the videos posted in here and you'll get a general idea. \:D/ I highly recommend the Weird Al song. :-
