I like some of that punk ska stuff like the Suicide Machines.

I like the Crack Rocksteady beat...Choking Victim, Leftover Crack.

Psssh, "third-wave" doesn't count. I'm talking the original shit, plus two-tone.

"Man...you know there ain't no such thing as leftover crack"

I think LOC should be mandatory listening for any atheists, leftists, anti-fascists, anti-imperialists, drug addicts, etc. Pretty much everyone should listen to them...and Choking Victim too. Goddamn I love these bands.

I mean look at the song I'm listening to by Choking Victim: If there was a god, I'm sure he would be hated...is the first line of the song. How much better can you get? :)

The Maytals are absolutely amazing, no question.

As well as the Skatalites, the Specials, the Toasters, and more recently Westbound Train.

And a shitload of third wave bands. I think I'm gonna see Big D this summer! Speaking of third wave: Everyone should check out the Flatliners if they haven't. They're so cool.
