The Amonites

Los Amonites eran una banda de 2 tone procendente de Brighton. Fundados a finales de los 70, mezclaban ska con powerpop, dando pie a un "ska-pop" unico. Solo grabaron unos pocos temas, en mayoria versiones de reggae y ska clasico, todas bastante raras y dificiles de encontrar. En mi opinion, son la mejor banda de 2 tone "underground" de Inglaterra
