for anyone into ska, i was wondering what some good ska bands are. the bosstones, bim skala bim, and like subhumans and shit i knwo about. btu what other ones are good (i'm not a huge fan of ltj or rbf and stuff like that). also, i've heard of the ska band HIM, but for some reason there are like two HIMs, there is some gothic rock one and this really sweet ska one, but i cant seem to find the ska one, if you have any info on this it would be sweet. thanks peace -e
i really dig less than jake. they put on suck a kick ass show. they have so much fun and do it for the damn fans! another Ive gotten into a few years back is the hippos. GREAT lyrics. check em out..and if I think of any others, ill drop a line...lol, im gonna go right now actually and go through my LTJ songs..Ill through you a few to check out
OK, then since I cant read, ltj is out. the hippos...the hippos? lol.. anyway, ltj does put on a kick ass show lol Im smiling my ass off the entore time I surf the crowd lol
Hey potshot is a good one. I warn you though, they make good music... but they're japanese check out subb also, you think HIM is gothic rock??
nah i mean in a mag i read that him was like a local ska band, but for some reason when i try to look them up (like on ebay or online) all i get is this gothic crap like HIs internal majesty or some crap like that. it looks gothic to me, unless it is the same band as in the mag, although they look nothing unlike. One is a bunch of people on sax and drums whereas the HIM (gothic one) has songs named like "kill yourself and sacrifice blood" and all that screwed up stuff... lol peace -e
