Hi! I have just found this site, and I will help you! Check out those great bands:The Slackers, Jammah Tammah, Secret Agent 8, Ruskabank...That's it for now. Just to tell you that I know more and more, but I can't remember now. Later.

Prince Buster
Desmond Dekker
The Ethiopians
The Skatalites
Toots & the Maytals (my personal favourite)
The Specials
The Selecter
Judge Dread

Probably the best list I've seen on this site period. But, I think 69dawg is mainly into third-wave

Sounds like you would enjoy 3rd wave more, you could try

Voodoo Glow Skulls
The Hippos
Operation Ivy (Some good Ska-Punk)
Big D & The Kids Table

But if ya wanna get into some more traditional ska, get some of what RazorsInTheNight suggested.

Hope ya find what your looking for

Five Iron Frenzy are brilliant,
And you should get some Ska Tokyo Paradise Orchestra stuff too.

Maybe explore your local ska scene.
