Biografía:
The Specials es una banda británica de ska (más precisamente del estilo que se conoce como 2 Tone) formada en 1977 en Coventry. Junto a Madness es una de las bandas más importantes que haya dado el género. Luego de muchos años de estar separados, en 2009 han vuelto al ruedo, subidos al revival que el 2 tone y el ska esta viviendo en el mundo.
Empezaron tocando ska y punk; más tarde fusionaron todo estos estilos, creando un nuevo sonido que fue concido como 2 Tone.
