More Ska please!!!

[Tsavo]

For the sake of conversation, what ska specifically? I'd like some Toasters.

[Lord_Mhoram]

If The mighty Mighty Bosstones are any indication of Ska, then yah, bring more in.

[kvzuky]

You know what this game needs?

Streetlight Manifesto. The complete discography.

Seriously.

[seinman]

Streetlight Manifesto. Also, Less Than Jake. In addition, more Bosstones. While we're at it, why not throw in some Toasters?

[bdrizzle14]

reel big fish and mighty mighty bosstones!!!

[Skaliwags]

Reel Big Fish, Less Than Jake, more Bosstones.... but you know what, id really like some Specials, Toasters and other 2-Tone stuff

FYI my main RB2 character is Walt Jabsco

also HMX employee in interview with IGN
http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/899/899325p4.html

IGN: One of the more interesting additions is The Mighty Mighty Bosstones. Was there any concern that so much of the heart and soul of ska is in the horns that it might actually be disappointing to play the other instruments on a ska song?

Brosious: No way, ska also has the cool off-beat rhythm guitar and The Bosstones also do that ska -- metal -- ska -- metal thing. Very nice for the game.

IGN: And if you feel it was a success, might we see more ska tracks as DLC in the future?

Brosious: Yep. Hit me with some suggestions.

IGN: Not to harp on it, but why the Bosstones? Was there ever a consideration for a 2 Tone ska song like The Specials' "Gangsters" or English Beat's "Mirror in the Bathroom"?

Brosious: Oh. Yeah, and we'll get to them. Being from Boston, we went with The Bosstones this time.

[ElPinko]

Madness - too many tracks to pick but a madness 3 pack would be welcome!

[Skaliwags]

madness would be epic, i mean our house is great, but id love cardiac arrest and one step beyond

[supps6]

Pietasters, The Toasters, Against All Authority, Catch 22, Mad Caddies, Aquabats and Sonic Boom Six

Some are punk/SKA

I would love anything from Tomas Kalnoky's discography. Truly the pioneer of Third wave-ska. Everything Goes Numb is one of my favorite CD's. For some great Acoustic rifts mixed in with an awesome metal driven distorted guitar, a jumpy and extremely active baseline, and a fast complex drumline what's not to love? I will say that the first time I heard Tomas Kalnoky I didn't understand a word he said but in time, I realized even the lyrics hold a lot of great value. All that being sad. Why shouldn't Harmonix put in the first single(also first music video) off the new "We will fall together." Just give a listen. What's not to love?

There's absolutely nothing about this post I can disagree about. Hell, a Streetlight/Catch-22/BOTAR/Gimp super-pack would be the greatest thing ever.

[eulogy]

I like listening to ska, but the mighty mighty bosstones song already in the game is extremely annoying to play on guitar. I hate playing ska riffs on guitar.

[Fallugaloog]

You know what this game needs?

Streetlight Manifesto. The complete discography.

Seriously.

This. This man is my hero and a genius.

[Tvae]

Listening to The Mighty Mighty Bosstones at the moment, and loving it.

[IfishIII]

I heart ska.

Streetlight, Five Iron, Less Than Jake, Mad Caddies, Planet Smashers, the Aquabats!, Reel Big Fish, Suburban Legends...and lots more.

And also some skapunkish stuff. Authority Zero, The Flatliners, Goldfinger...etc.
