I've been listening to a lot of Sublime lately, and I want something fresh. Anyone know of any bands that combine ska and punk similarly?

Long Beach Dub Allstars had several members that were in Sublime before Bradley died. Check them out.

Dirty Heads is the first one that comes to mind… very similar to Sublime.

Not as much the punk aspect, but Ballyhoo! has Sublime vibes, reggae and ska

Big D and the kids table is more ska then dub or reggae.

The Mad Caddies are a favorite of mine probably a bit closer to what your looking for then Big D.

Operation Ivy imo is the perfect ska and punk combo.

I've found that Bumpin' Uglies is good for when I want Sublime, but am feeling burned out on Sublime.
