It’s time to discuss one of the largest ska bands known in the Christian music industry. They hail from the Motor City (Detroit, MI) and they are responsible for one of the most unique praise albums of the 1990’s. This band is The Inzyderz.

In 1998, they released another album called Fight of My Life. This returned them more to their original sound. In 1999, the band toured with Plankeye. They also toured with ska seculars, the Skeletones, two members of which became Christians through The Insyderz’ daily Bible studies with them. In 2000, they went back to their goods and released Skalleluia 2. It was not as popular as their first praise album. The band scaled down and just did smaller shows over the next few years, as rumours of their demise were abound as they became intolerant of the politics of the record industry. Most of the band got married during this time also.
In 2001, they released The Greatest and the Rarest. In 2003, after an appearance at Cornerstone, they released what would be their final album, Soundtrack to a Revolution. In 2005, it was announced that they would be playing their last three shows in September. On Sept 24, 2005, sharing the stage with the OC Supertones, they played their last concert. In August of 2010, they reunited for a show. Apparently a new record is in the works called The Sinner’s Songbook.
