Informat is awesome, they are out there.
well usually a style of music, Ska for example, has an orgin that is meant to be melodic and peacful.In grindcore's case heavy and judged by the beat or beatdown parts is what i see. A song that has both just ruins it. you might as well be listeni...
One could argue, though, that basic ska-punk ruins real ska. Ska-core is an entirely separate entity from ska, such as reggaeton is from reggae...the fanbases rarely overlap and even the uninitiated are able to separate the two: the fans have the ...
Who listens to music they don't like? ONLY MORONS! The issue here is: Ska-core ruins the real ska, since both genres sound completely different! Get it?
Fusing genres should be accepted with open arms. If you don't like it, don't listen. Some of my favorite skacore bands are definitely ...Detonate, Public Access, & Infamous Jake And The Pinstripe Mafia.

Dub is not a sub-genre of Ska...it's related, like reggae is, but it's not a sub-genre...
Ska is s broad genre (3rd wave, two tone, dub), and trust me, the hate that is thrown at skacore bands makes them wish that there was a new name for the genre. Booking new skacore can be so difficult.
