The third wave of ska, known by those not in-the-know as simply ``ska'', borrows heavily characteristics of
punk, most notably rhythm changes, fast beats, and heavy guitars. Typical ska artists include
Reel Big Fish,
The Toasters, and&
Buck-O-Nine. Some
punk artists, such as
Rancid, will delve into ska every once in a while; and a few other bands such as
Save Ferris and
The Cherry Poppin' Daddies will incorporate swing and pop into the mix.
