everyone who listens to all this fake 'ska' these days is just a rude-boy wannabe with shitty taste and dumb style...
Eh, I don't know if I'd take it that far...
For the kids that have grown up with acts like Dance Hall Crashers and Mustard Plug as their only reference to Ska, is it any wonder that artists on the Trojan record label sound so alien to them?
Same thing for kids that think of Punk in the context of Blink-182 or Green Day, who have no knowledge of MC5 or The Germs. It's all contextual.
