List of bands

I think it be cool to have everyone just throw out names of some great bands. It'll be a good way for those new to the music to look for other artists.

I've already mentioned:
Bad Manners
Judge Dread
and Pauline Black
of course theres the Skatelites, and the Specials

Floyd Lloyd is pretty amazing, especially "Tear it up"

Keep it going! just drop bands names and maybe their best songs/albums.
New or old, doesn't matter!

English Beat
Madness
Desmond Dekker
Derrick Morgan
Heptones
Ocean 11
Agent 99
Fighting Gravity
Toasters
Pietasters
Pilfers

I could ramble for pages but I'll try to leave stuff out for others to fill in.
