Yeah King Django is pretty good. And, I like the Aggrolites too.

slackers, common rider, op ivy, mad caddies, big D and the kid table, blue meanies

i know some of them are ska-punk bands. but isnt it really all about the horn section?

No it is NOT all about the horns section at all. If slipknot got a horn section would they be playing ska? Hell na, so why do you thin ka punk band with a horn section is ska? Your lucky I don't have the time to go off on a tangent right now, but I've said it all before and don't have the time now. SO look here instead http://musicbanter.com/showthread.php?t=5639

oo, i'm intimidated. of course if slipknot got a horn section they wouldn't be ska, pull you're head out of you're ass i was making a generalization. i said SKA-PUNK, its got elements of both, and the horn section is what gives it the ska feel, along with the fast reggae riffs between more punk oriented power-chord type riffs. its still got the feel of ska.

Why would horns give it a ska feel? Why not a jazz feel? Or a classical feel? Or a bop feel? You do realize ska isn't the only music with horns right? Do you also know that ska isn't enirely based on horns? More so guitar than horns any day. Why would a fast reggae riff be related to ska? Most ska isn't really that blazing fast hence the reason it draws an lder crowd. But anyway I don't know why your being so ****y and stuff or why you posted a bunch of "ska punk" (with exception of the slackers) in a ska forum anway.

People are free to post what they wish. I mean, I can understand stand where you're coming from. I feel the same way. That ska is not just about the horns and mainly about the guitar/bass/drum beat. But still, let him/her post as they please!

You're not "accidentally" hitting people. But even if you are, thats like putting perfume on a pile of sh1t and calling it a fuking rose. I've had enough excuses. I won't eat sh1t anymore. THIS ENDS NOW!
