Ska is inherently faulty?

<< < (2/13) > >>

Ghostwriter:
Ska can be excellent when done correctly!  My favorites are Streetlight Manifesto, Catch-22, Common Rider, and Mighty Mighty Bosstones.

As for the people who hate ska on a fundamental basis: I'm not sure I understand.  Are you just jackasses?  Are you musical snobs by trade?  Are you taking a gracious opportunity to lambaste a style of music that is out of your spectrum, possibly to appear as though you have a great amount of musical taste and conviction?  I really do not get it.  So help me out!  I'll remember to decode your opinion, which you have a tendency to purvey as an objective truth, into the realm of musical subjectivity again.  It's okay, I understand that you are a winner* because you listen to seriously authentic underground shit that nobody has ever heard of and therefore has not been soiled by any cultural context.

*I am referring to the "special" musical olympics, of course

I kinda like Reel Big Fish, Especially that song "Beer". Whenever he's like "I think I'll have myself a beer" I'm like "hey, me too!".
Seriously though. Ska kinda came along with that whole adolescent punk rock phase for me. Plus, where I lived there was hardly ever shows so when a Ska band came around you had to be all "sure I like ska" unless you didn't want to go to another show for about 4 months.

JodyAnthony:
I liked ska when it wasnt just bad punk with trumpets.

what ever happened to the good stuff like desmond dekker and the like?

EDIT: I must say though, I loves me some TMBG

KharBevNor:
It went to the big dancehall in the sky.

I hate ska on a fundamental basis because it's generally annoying and unoriginal. I R MUSIC LEETIST.

I like Leftover Crack though.

Kai:
Leftover Crack and The Aquabats are the extent of it. ANd if you want to call Propaghandi ska.
