really awesome ska band from japan. stolen from a site These ten charismatic musicians in impeccably outrageous suits are certainly masters of third wave/modern ska, whether it is traditional Jamaican ska (complete with full horns), hardcore garage-surf-punk-ska, or rock, jazz, funk and reggae and even Latin and calypso. The jazz chops are there - the horn section alone is well qualified to blast complex and articulate big band. And when they do a cover, they go for something like Deep Purple’s “Black Night.” TSPO are veterans of the studio (11 albums, 25 singles, 10 videos and 2 DVDs) but their live show just has to be seen to be believed. The combination of the ferocious musicianship (all are stellar musicians, lending their talents to other groups and projects in Japan) combined with the live-wire high energy and the amusing toasting from the “Agitate man” add up to an unforgettable show of slammin’ ska and much more turned upside down and sideways. check 'em out websiteyou can watch a live video at you will need real player

Damn, you beat me to making this thread. sad
Anyway, I really, really enjoy Skapara. They have incredible talent. I'm importing "Ska Para Toujou" from Amazon.com, but it's really expensive. That's probably all of my money. But it's worth it.
Plus, my best friend Mike speaks Japanese, and he's really starting to get into Ska, so he enjoys them a lot.
Edit:: Skapara is what TSPO is sometimes called. Don't want to confuse anyone...
