Yo. Excluding ska songs by US, UK, and Canadian groups what are your favorite tracks? Hell, let's exclude Jamaican artists too because they're already well known.
I hope to hear some new groups.

yes, this is true, but this doesn't mean it's NOT a foreign country. it means it was excluded from counting on this thread.

That was e-sarcasm. Get in to it.

BUT... when I think of 'foreign' music, I think of music from a totally different culture. Not... from Canada.

If you think Canadian culture is not a different culture, you are sadly mistaken. If you think Montreal's culture is not different from Vancouver's, you are sadly mistaken. If you think cultures within the United States don't differ, you are sadly mistaken.

I really like 'SOS' by 2nd Thought. They're from Aruba. I have their demo if anyone wants it.
