So #RIPFishbone (now effectively the Angelo & Chris Show, good luck with THAT, fellas), the REAL fathers of funk rock (not the Silly Schleppers) and the bridge from 2-Tone to 3rd Wave ska. Ask Stefani, she'll tell you.
MY FB Top 10:
10) "VTTLOTFDGF"
9) "When Problems Arise"
(Trivia -- video directed by Toni Basil.)
All you "Say Anything" devotees -- THIS is the tune Cusack was playing on his jambox. Cameron Crowe thought the Gabriel tune was more appropriate, so there ya go. 😆
8) "Bonin' In The Boneyard"
Ha! Speaking of "Say Anything" -- remember cassette singles? Lookee here...
7) "Skankin' To The Beat"
Enough fucking around. Let's go live to the Warfield in '92...
6) "Fight The Youth"
They tried, y'all. They really did.
Venn diagrams of (early '90s) genre-fetishists weren't ready.
5) "Everyday Sunshine"
Back to that Warfield boot. Check the lyrics AND the 6/8 time sig. 🔥
4) "Servitude"
Norwood told me that this bittersweet slice of pie was "about the radio, man."
3) "Lemon Meringue"
Then they lost Kendall and Chris and got moody/introspective. My favorite album cuz it's in your face (punny) and nasty. Of course. 🤓
2) "In The Cube"
Here’s the article from “Q The Music” site, NOT the Mike Flynn lunacy site, in which Chris gives his side and more. Also, Angelo and Chris (according to the “band’s” site and a sanctioned fan site) intend to tour as “Fishbone.”

Hey @Bix —
I thought of you.
You’ll see why.
Now Fishbone fans are flaying Chris n’ Angelo on Insta. 😱🤣😏
Part 1 —
As predicted, Norwood (the band is named after him and his brother) says “Not so fast.”
