Default Good Ska-Punk

Does anyone here know of any good ska-punk? I know that there are a lot of bad unoriginal bands out there so I was hoping you guys could give me some of the more original ones.

I like the Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Reel Big Fish, and Streetlight Manifesto, personally.

Songs:

Mighty Mighty Bosstones:
"The Rascal King"
"You Gotta Go"

Reel Big Fish:
"Sell Out"
"Brand New Song"

Streetlight Manifesto:
"Watch It Crash"
"Down, Down, Down To Mephisto's Cafe"
"We Will All Fall Together"

Only one band out there that truly sounds different to the many bands peddling the same old-same old and that is the Flaming Tsunamis.

Streetlight manefesto is one of my favorite bands. I love their song, a Moment of Silence and A Moment of Silence.

The mighty mighty bosstones are ska but not so much the punk part, same with Reel Big Fish, that is pure Ska and nothing else.

Operation Ivy is, IMHO, the be-all-end-all of ska-punk. Murphy's Law is right up there too.
