SKA-P goes out of its way to make a statement on everything it believes in. Some think that they are largely truthful in their opinionated lyrics, while others think they are hypocritical. While some of its listeners tune in mainly because of the political lyrics, other listeners do not appreciate all or any of the opinions that the band has in their music, and largest part just enjoys the diversive, unique and appealing sound of the band. Their nonconformist attitude is also portrayed by their eccentric haircuts. Some band members have mohawks while others are almost bald (with a ponytail in the back).

Ideals

SKA-P is very open and frank about their views. Common themes throughout SKA-P's songs are the human rights, anti-fascism, legalization of marijuana, and the abolishment of bull fighting. They oppose many of the traditional mainstream views of their society.

Majority of SKA-P songs do not stray from the topic of political or social commentary. This list is by no means complete.
