Streetlight is much more talented than RBF. Tomas Kalnoky's lyrics blow Aaron Barret's out of the water. There really is no comparison. And the music for Streetlight is way more complicated. Reel Big Fish is good for an uplift. But if you want to listen to music because of talent, Streetlight Manifesto is the correct option.
With the exception of a few songs, I'd much rather watch a Streetlight show than skank to it. Streetlight is the only ska band I've seen that has terrible unorganized skank pits (at least in Dallas) Idk if it's the music itself or what, but there's always some asshole at Streetlight shows that's fucking it up for everyone in the pit.
streetlight are more musical in many ways, but reel big fish are much more fun, and aaron barretts songwriting is just amazing, ill always love streetlight, but rbf cant really compare, theyre not truely the same genre, streelight have much more latin influence and rbf have much more punk rock infuence. They are too different to compare, and in my opinion, complimenting a band you like by badmouthing another is kinda lame
you really think streetligh has a lantin influence? i dont think so.....they have influences from jazz, classical, and punk....but never heard lantin before.

@Blinkrules101 They both are really good, to be honest(IMO) they both have great riffs.

Who cares if the crowd is lifeless? That means we can actually watch a live performance without the loud people butchering the song.

Ska is Ska. It doesn't matter who it is as long as the music's good. Both Streetlight and RBF are amazing in their own way.

Ska is for skanking, not moshing. But I do agree, the crowd is kinda lifeless.
