     I'm not familiar with Kommunity FK or Fishbone; however, I am a
     fan of TSOL.  I'm surprised that you did not recommend them,
     especially because of your comment "I love dark sounding things..."
     because TSOL has a dark sound, and they are very good.

     May I recommend their latest album: "Change Today". 
     A somewhat short album (30+ minutes) consisting of about 10
     excellent songs.  I would say this album is must buy for any 
     person of alternative tastes.
