Skankin’ For Jesus

Various Artists

Testament

This album is probably the definitive volume of Christian Ska music available. This disc has over a dozen artists, including David and Skalioth, Let’s Go Bowling, and Mary and the Magdalenes. Most of the songs are originals, but some of the most effective tracks are gospel standards, like “Amazing Grace,” turned into a killer ska/punk anthem by the Skarleton Heston. The quality of these bands will win over any ska fan, even if you think Christian music isn’t your bag.
