The English Beat

The English Beat are a rock band noted for pioneering a ska-oriented style of music known as "2-tone". They were founded as simply The Beat, but when marketing in the United States they had to change the name to avoid confusion with another band. Album Special Beat Service was a hit. Although commercially limited, their debut album received critical acclaim.
