Know of any good Reggae/Ska bands?

Question

I've been having a slight obsession with Reggae/Ska music. Like Pepper, Slightly Stoopid, Sublime and Sly and Robbie. Anyone know of other bands like this that I could enjoy? I'd like it to be more of a mellow sounding music rather than fast.

Answer 1

Listen to the expendables. Believe me, i love all of these bands listed by the other users, but since i have listened to the expendables I no longer feel the need to listen to pepper or slightly stoopid. The expendables blow them away! They have much more skill at guitar and are much more interesting to listen to. Don't get me wrong, i love pepper and slightly stoopid, but the expendables kich those bands ***. Believe me, listen to their new album and you will be hooked. I can honestly say I think they are better than Sublime. They are also a great band to kick back and relax to, unlike less than jake or reel big fish which are more poppy and upbeat.
