Holy fucking shit.
I just found a massive fucking playlist of Ska, Ska-Punk, Reggae, etc - all released *this* year.
111 hours of brand new ska to check out.
Holy shit.

Ska cover of the theme song from The Mandalorian? Why not?

I'm into August now!
I had originally planned to go back through the 2019, 2018, and 2017 lists as well, but this has honestly been a chore for me, and I as much as I love ska (I really do) there's a lot of very bland, unremarkable music released in a year.
That said, Pussycat Doghouse's album, Bananas, is really good!
I'm still not done with the 2020 list, but the 2021 list is already 90 minutes long!

Fuck yeah!
@PostMasterGeneral If there ever was a year to bust out the trumpet...
2020
@Garrison @PostMasterGeneral technically today is March 248th of the Hell Year, we never left that damned month
@PostMasterGeneral hell yeah, I love my music the way I live my life: eh, ok
@PostMasterGeneral More like May-Kways imo
I respect this, and you.
@PostMasterGeneral jeez yes, this so much
@PostMasterGeneral ska doesn’t rest
The guitars do, but only on the beat.
Making my way through this list, slowly.
Standouts so far:
The Bandulus - super chill, laid back vibe. More trad-Ska.
The Skluttz - Ska-Punk in the vein of Less Than Jake, with a female lead vocal.
