Symarip was a ska and reggae band from the United Kingdom, originating in the late 1960s. The group had built their reputation as Prince Buster's backing band. They are widely marked as one of the first skinhead reggae bands. Symarip recorded one studio album under this synonym, Skinhead Moonstomp.
The first reggae band to target skinheads as their audience, this album scored big when this was released in 1970, and even bigger when the 2-tone craze demanded it's reissue in the 80s. This is the most important of all skinhead reggae albums.
