The Slackers are the best ska band since 1990 IMO.

Every one. Delete your list (maybe except for Madness) because it makes me puke because that shite ain't ska.

ETA: that was harsh. sorry

You can't have a ska list without the Specials.

Against All Authority.
Less Than Jake.


I don't know that I'd necessarily classify Sublime as a ska band, though.

"This is the old dude, Howie J Reynolds, and youre listening to Less Than Jake"

LTJ's Losing Streak & Pezcore were such great albums. With that said, I agree that Reel Big Fish was on a level of their own and then everyone else followed.

Edited to correct name

The original Specials did it best- pure genius- mixing Ska with punk. At the time, The Selecter and English Beat were also in the mode, but The Specials were in a class all their own.
