Vote Now In The Album Of The Year Poll 2019

Dear Reggae Steady Ska friend,

you can now vote for your favourite albums from 2019. The poll ends on Sunday, 2 February, 2020.

The “Album Of The Year” polls have always been one of your favourites. That’s cool. We love the buzz around the polls, too.

It’s really fine if you want to support your favourite band, but don’t miss the chance to check on the other greats. First get an overview on all the cool releases from around the world this year, by first going to our New Reggae And Ska Albums 2019 list.  

Again, we spent a lot of time collecting and linking the albums for this poll. We went from obscure podcasts to long-running magazines and back. And we are incredibly thankful to the people who provided us with info from far away places. It’s strange to see that in 2019 it is still so hard to get an overview on what the ska/rocksteady/early reggae world has going on around the world and around the generations.

HOW TO VOTE

1. Listen

Go to our New Reggae And Ska Albums 2019 list with information about all the albums that are in the poll.
