Also reggea and dancehall come from Jamaica as well, incredible such a small country having so much influence.

such a small country

don't forget ska, which is wide ranging enough to have radio bands, but there's also a satanic ska band

Ska punk is my absolute favourite genre of music. Streetlight Manifesto, Less Than Jake, Faintest Idea, Mad Caddies, and the Suicide Machines are all bands I love, to name a few.

what's your most recent favorite album?

Right now, it's Ska Dream by Jeff Rosenstock, and by extension its sister album No Dream. I'm also really looking forward to Streetlight's next album The Place Behind The Stars, as the few songs they've let us hear from it are already incredible despite not being entirely finished.

nice, thanks for the recommendation!

No problem! I recommend Jeff's entire discography, especially his projects The Arrogant Sons of Bitches and Bomb the Music Industry!.
