Teens React To '90s Ska Music! (The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Reel Big Fish, Sublime) | React

[@chadwildclay]

Would have blown those teens minds to learn that Travis Barker is the drummer in that Aquabats song.

[@pocobird]

I was thinking the same thing

[@anothergamingchannel2656]

Bro that just blew my mind and I'm old enough I should've known lol. I only knew him from blink 182

[@starfishboy1]

​@anothergamingchannel2656 I only found out from the aquabats description on Spotify a couple of days ago I sat there for at least an hour just going through the description and it kept blowing my mind

[@umno3175]

half of them didn't even recognize Gwen Stefani I'm sure it'd go the same way

[@lessonsinfailing]

I'm not a kid, but I didn't know that.

[@chrisfrench9089]

Man, no mention of The Specials? They were pretty much THE second wave band. A Message to You Rudy would have been a perfect track for them to hear

[@anthonyramirez9003]

You mean the 2tone era. Like The Beat, Bad Manners, The Selector.

[@Thisismyonlyaccount]

What about the aqua bats

[@mike117712]

Okay as awsome as that was, they totally should have at least talked about skanking. One simply cannot listen to Ska without subconsciously doing the Skank!

[@jeffcoan4038]

The 90s was a great period for music- end of the hair bands, birth of grunge, boy bands, girl power, Ska, rebirth of swing/ big band and rockabilly, an evolution of rap. It really was like a musical renaissance in many ways.

[@GoldenStateOfKind]

*rebirth of Ska

[@skabuoy]

@@GoldenStateOfKind Actually, the rebirth of Ska happened in the late 70s. It hasn't stopped growing since then. Bands like The Specials and Madness make it commercially viable again, and ever since then there have been Ska bands. The Third Wave of Ska started when it became commercially viable again in the second half of the 80s in Europe, with crossover success in Rap and House. America caught up in the 90s when they mixed it with punk, making it commercially viable in the US. If you want to compare check the first album of Dance Hall Crashers and then check out their last album and notice the difference. Or check out the first recordings of No Doubt, songs like "Everything's Wrong" and "Up Yours", and then listen to "Tragic Kingdom". Same thing.

[@GoldenStateOfKind]

@@skabuoy why do people do this? Why not address the op? Instead of giving me a history lesson on things I am well aware of. I was simply correcting the mistake that was stated, 90’s did not “birth ska”… No reason to @ me. @ the op.

[@skabuoy]

@@GoldenStateOfKind There actually IS a reason to '@' you, as you put it. You did not claim the 90s did not birth Ska, you clearly stated they were responsible for the rebirth of Ska. There is simply no other way of interpreting your words. So if you are talking about "a history lesson on things I am well aware of", it came across like you were not that well aware of it at all. So if you don't want reactions like mine, be more specific in what you mean, or don't say stuff that is simply untrue. If I happen to come across people spouting BS, I have the urge to correct it. Not that I care one bit whether you believe it , but people who are not aware of the facts read your comment, take it for truth, and spread that further. Ignorance breeds ignorance.

[@GoldenStateOfKind]

@@skabuoy a third wave is still a rebirth of sorts. I made a very brief comment, which was not inaccurate at all. I could nitpick and point out some inaccuracies in your comment however…

[@K1ddkanuck]

I was a ska kid. And I guess to this day, I am a ska adult (which sounds like an oxymoron, but you're only as old as you feel). From the Skatalites to Sublime, Reel Big Fish and Goldfinger to Catch 22/Streetlight Manifesto, ska is gold. Very sweet to see these kids enjoy the music I (never?) grew up on ;)

[@marklane2583]

Exactly how I feel I still listen to all of it mad caddies, reel big fish and catch 22 are constantly on and I never grew out of it.

[@eddyherrera3207]

[@ARMY_for_10_years]

I'm so happy to see a positive response out of the teens for Ska. It's certainly in a league of its own.

[@tylerzerbe6861]

i recently heard someone describe ska as the music that plays in a 13 year old boy's head when he finds out there will be extra mozzarella sticks and it kinda fits. it carries that vibe of happiness with a level of purity un-corrupted by anything above base-functions. ska just feels good, you dance and dont care that you look like a fool, you vibe thru a warehouse doing sick kickflips on your skateboard with chunky graphics on a playstation. i'm old enough to have experienced this as it happened and the memories attached to this music will be treasured forever. i kinda feel like maybe the world needs a revival of ska. a little bit of sun and happiness and silliness. the world's too dark and serious these days and it seems like nobody's having much fun.

[@landonvlcek9047]

The 90s was easily the most diverse era of the 20th century. So many styles coming and going in such a short time frame

I was so happy to see all the kids reacting positively to Goldfinger. Not only that, but Goldfinger not having missed a single beat and sounding just as good as they did 30 years ago.

[@mix3k818]

We are long overdue for a Ska revival. If punk could come back to the radio waves then so should it.

[@RdCrestdBreegull]

It’s already here, just check out all the releases Bad Time Records has put out. If something’s on the radio that means it’s a fad that will die out, all of the best ska is not on the radio.

[@SkaPunkInternational]

lots of ska bands have been killing it for years! check out some of the bands on my label (ska punk international) and on bad time records. so many sick bands still making it happen!

[@DroppingFBombs]

Punk as a generic style will never go away because it's the launching point for most underground rock. To quote a favorite of mine, "3 chords and 6 strings. Screaming how they're gonna change things. They're young, they're strong, they're proud! We turn it up cuz we like it loud!" Most "progressive" musicians started in punk, then "progressed" lol Ska, however, is it's own niche. Predates punk by a few decades and doesn't have the mainstream appeal, but it never went away. I got into ska 22 years ago after the death of 3rd wave and I find new stuff pretty regularly. When it comes to music nothing ever truly dies, you just have to seek it out

[@canningmatthew]

It is there if you look for it. Some Bruno Mars tracks are Ska influenced. More pop Ska than Punk though.

[@skippermatt7939]

I actually heard The Interrupters track "She's a Match (I'm Kerosene)" on the regular radio recently. Made me so happy

[@SecretSpots]

Having been the guitarist of a popular ska-reggae-punk band for almost 20 years myself (shared the stage with all the "greats" including with the guys from Sublime) I was finally happy to see the one kid recognized that the most important element that makes ska "ska" is the chunk chunk rhythm of the guitar, NOT the horns. Not all ska tunes have horns, but ALL ska songs have that certain staccato rhythm chunk of the guitar. ... This is a very entertaining and fun video to watch their reactions. ... By the way that girl's reaction on not understanding what Tim Armstrong (Rancid) was saying was HILARIOUS! I feel ya girl, I could never understand most of what he sings since Operation Ivy! 🤣

[@EricEdLoveless]

I was born in ‘71, found Ska through Madness and The Specials and I’ve been skankin’ ever since.

@@flaysol7719 Buck O Nine!!!! Haven't thought about them in forever

[@PoorRoleModel]

They definitely covered it at a suuuuuper surface level. I was honestly surprised they mentioned the waves in the first place, though. But third wave is as good a gateway drug as any into ska as a whole. Bopping to third wave will open the door to curiosity, and eventually lead to things like 2tone, and the kids were definitely enjoying third wave... So there's hope!

[@Dartania]

Yes. I’d even say The Skatalites, early Bob Marley even and original Jamaican ska first. Then some tunes from The Clash and second wave ska like mention above plus Madness, etc. Then Fishbone and later including punk ska like Operation Ivy and others of the great suggestions above. Hepcat to close it out as a modern throwback.
