I wish it was the norm to be punk I hope that I can start a good punk band and start a punk revolution with other punk bands if that happened I'd be so fucking happy.
ska goes back to the 20s mate ill think you find it came before reggae but its near enuf the same thing t wo tones different and so is third wave and ska punk sont say they are the same cos this is ska punk and less than jake are third wave
lol, Ska is the grandfather of reggae(father of Rocksteady) and far older than punk. Ever heard of Desmond Dekker, Prince Buster or The Maytals? All jamaican ska artists who were big before Marley even was thought of.
i agree reggae or ska is carribean based. jamaica wtf ever all this stuff is inherently from a region close to america, at the base. everything else extra is just a treat, and i love it
ya there not the first ska band cause there not a ska band... there the first band to mix rock and ska together.. and opened the door to a hole new sound!!!
why does everybody care about how to label? why not just listen and agree its some of the greatest rock&roll ever made? yeah watch now im gonna get some retarded fag yelling at me telling me "its not rock&roll its ska," or "its punk" i wont reply ill tell you in advance, opinions are like assholes, and noone wants to hear yours... cause its smelly.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
What the fuck are you talking about fu3737.
Op Ivy, is the best ska band. Pretty much all previous ska bands before Op Ivy was not ska. Op Ivy pretty much invented todays ska bands. They're not hardcore punk retard, listen to the Casulaties. That's fucking hardcore.
Op Ivy is pure ska punk, not hardcore.
Go to hell with your little smiley face too, fucking faggot.
lol i know that there not hard core i was talking about the type of music and they were the best ska band ever but im not ggunna get in to a big fight over some bull shit because u cant get a life
and op iv is NOT the first ska band, ska has been around since the early sixties. listen to simmerdown by the wailing wailers(1964?) if you really want a label op iv is called THIRD WAVE SKA, but i dont like stupid labels, tey're pointless
Ska music start in 1956 at the Studio One Records, thanks to Clement "Coxsone" Dodd, who mixed Calypso Mento with soul and R&B ang give it a up-tempo style.
@richards311 i love operation ivy, but i can say with certainty that they are FAR from being the first third wave ska band. bands that pre-date op ivy include the uptones, the bosstones, the toasters, fishbone, etc.
@richards311 They're the first skacore band. Streetlight Manifesto and Catch 22 really fit into the 3rd wave ska genre. I'm a huge fan of both myself. All of the subgenres really get confusing with ska anyway.
Here's the long and the short of it: Op Ivy fucking rules. Split hairs all you want, this fact will not change.
