Ska punk

From Freepedia

Ska punk is a fusion of Jamaican ska and British and American punk rock. The earliest combinations of the two sounds occurred in the late 1970s as punk's revolutionary lyrical content led to a natural affinity with similarly styled reggae and other Caribbean musical styles. The second wave of ska (2 tone) was primarily British, and was followed closely in the late 1980s and 1990s with American skacore (Third Wave), which achieved much mainstream commercial success. The third wave is generally known as the era in which ska punk was popularized.
