i had a nice post typed up with album recommendations for kamahl/ anyone else interested in ska, but i accidentally closed the window :[
so a condensed version;
streetlight manifesto - everything went numb
bandits of the acoustic revolution - a call to arms EP
catch 22 - keasbey nights
~
the mighty mighty bosstones - let's face it
reel big fish - turn the radio off
sublime - 40 oz to freedom
the aquabats - fury of the aquabats
one cool guy - from downtown
mustard plug - evildoer's beware
big d and the kids table - good luck
arrogant sons of bitches - three cheers for disappointment
if you like those, there's plenty more out there in the third wave... and then you've got all waves one and two to look forward to as well :]
and if not, well, at least you've got streetlight and bandits [They Provide The Paint For The Picture-Perfect Masterpiece That You Will Paint On The Insides Of Your Eyelids is one of the greatest songs of all time, imo]
