I love "Kill all the white men" by NoFx.
I like punks, but their music never gave me anything. It's nice that so many punks and punk bands seem to love reggae, but I could never see the connection that reggae and punk seem to have. Okay they're both "anti-system" yeah, but musically?

There's an interview with Don Letts you can find on youtube and he explains the connection.
its pretty much the punk guys gravitating to reggae and not the other way around.

Yeah I guess you're right. Interesting topic though.
