I sometimes listen to a Pandora station built off of Bob Marley. I have no idea who the bands are, and 20-30% of it is The Wailers, but it's great in certain spots.
Same with blues.

I dig reggae...my last cruise in the Navy my rack was in supply berthing even though I was an aviation guy...all of the guys right around my rack were from different parts of the Caribbean.....Haiti, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, and Trinidad...they tuned me in to some very good Reggae...the issue with Reggae though is that it is either really good....or really bad....some of the best in my opinion is the stuff that is very much preaching Rasta and basically about praising Jah...I don't believe in the tenants of Rasta, but as I understand it Reggae was intended as a sort of praise and worship music for the religion...Reggae that is talking about worldly stuff and not Jah, is watered down and usually sucks...just my .02
Bob, in his early days, was almost always preaching about Jah even if most listeners don't realize it...

Yep.
Somedays I will just listen to the Best of Bob throughout. It's just so good. So damn good.

Rebelution
Pepper
Slightly Stoopid
SOJA
Mike Pinto
Iration
Mad Caddies (Ska/Reggae)
SOJA may be the closest thing to to what you're already listening to. The majority of the others are more Cali/Reggae. More along the lines of new school Sublime. Not sure if that's your thing, but wanted to throw them out there.
Rebelution and S.O.J.A are probably at the top of my list.
Here's a few individual songs by these guys if you want to check out a song or two. They're all good IMO.
Rebelution- Heart like a lion, Change The system (Any)
Soja- Born in Babylon, Summer Breeze
Mike Pinto - One more time, tricky nicky
Pepper - No shame (full album on youtube)

If u can find the story of Jamaican music box set. It's only 4 cd's but it's great. Follows reggae from the early days of ska to dance hall stuff. And anything produced by Lee "scratch" Perry is awesome. Bob Marley songs of freedom box set is gold.

Sublime is about as reggae as I get.

Iration is one of my favorites. Didn't really like the latest album but "wait and see" is a classic.
I listened to a band called "Mango Kingz" and they were pretty sick. More Hawaiian feel. I suggest "you got me" by them.

Hell yeah i love some reggae. I havent heard the ones you mentioned. Some buddies were talking about rebelution the other day. Been meaning to check them out.
The original reggae sound is what i like. Bob and the wailers, gregory isaacs, dennis brown, jimmy cliff, the melodians, toots and the maytals.
Gregory Isaacs' All I have is love anthology is 50 songs that can be played straight through on repeat every day and never get old. Just makes me happy. Had it playing at work today. Will probably play it at work tomorrow.
I dont like the shite that is basically rap to a "reggae" beat.
