Punk and ska
 

Now, I've listened to a bit of punk and ska over the years, from different eras. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but didn't punk at least partially grow out of 2nd Wave Ska?

By second wave do you mean two-tone? Well either way no punk did not grow out of ska at all.

Punk was baisicallky an established genre by the time ska hit Britain in the 70's. The two genres helped fuel eachother quite a bit, but there not really related.

Ah, sorry. My mistake

...i have no clue. the only ska band i like is ltj so i really have no experience in that department.

Once again, Less than jake isnt a ska band

mmm...ok...sorry?

i doubt i've ever listened to ska..i've only heard of it...what is a good ska band for a ska virgin?

The Skatalites, The Slackers, and Catch 22 or Reel Big Fish
1st wave, 2nd wave, 3rd wave

Yay! Now we can go surfing! Seriously though, Mad Caddies are good too.
