    Being taken every where by my older brothers, I grew up with Ska and punk rock. But I hardly ever see or rather hear anyone listening to it anymore.... So is ska dead? Or Am I jhst deaf????(!):thumbsup:

    I lived through the second and third waves. And who knows, there might still be a fourth. :slight_smile: I have a friend who is in a ska band.

    I have friends who listen to Ska, so I would imagine its not dead. Then again, I can't think of any genre that's dead. Except nu-metal. Nu-metal is definitely dead.

    Huh. Been a while since I've seen people actually like and remember ska. +1 faith in humanity. Ten more and I finally get my wings. Streetlight manifesto is my favorite for many a reason.(*hug*)

    I love Ska. Op Ivy are my favorite ska-punk band, I also love Common Rider. Ska is sure as hell not dead. I was in a ska band a while ago (sometime in mid-2013) but we didn't really get along

    It was a big 90s fad, wasn't it? I was born in '99, so I didn't exactly get to experience it. But I love this song:

    Does it count?

    I'm glad my mother, and some of my own exploration, got me into punk & ska. Otherwise, I would not be the awesome person I am today. The only one that knows more about punk in my house is my mother, who is awesome as well. I'm actually in the process of starting a punk band. Also, I so want fourth wave of ska.

    I guess punk and ska will never die, it just goes more underground from time to time...
    Love bands like the sex pistols,nofx, the Ramones and so on
