    Seeing people in 2021 realize that ska actually rules. :sicko-blur:

    Can someone explain the ska hate to me, I must’ve missed the memo it’s bad?

      I'm not completely sure, but the large majority of musicians in ska bands are super dorky, and the lyrics are usually pretty awful (although you could say that about like 90% of songs). It tended to attract the dorky weird kids, especially the band nerds, and this is coming from someone who really liked ska for a solid 4-5 years and was a dorky band nerd.

        that’s interesting. I just found it organically and thought “oh this is dope” and not much else.
