>The Slackers from New York are by far the best ska band ever and that is not 3rd >wave fad talk either. Maybe not a hardcore madness fans cup of tea but a for a >ska fan? fantastic.         This is something that has come up before (certainly in private e-mails, anyway), but what the hell is Third Wave Ska??!! This has baffled me for years. There was a type of music called 'New Wave' in the early 80's in England. For me, there was only one "wave" of ska - the original Jamaican sixties stuff. Who or what would one place in "Second Wave" and "Third Wave" ska? Confused from Milton Keynes.
