RUSHHEAD666 Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 I remember reading on the RUSH section of the Forum about the influences of reggae with a few RUSH songs. Primarily "New World Man" and "The Enemy Within." "The Police" were also mentioned! Stewart Copeland is one of the best drummers on the planet!! How can you deny the talents of the "HI-HAT KING!" Speaking of Stewart Copeland, has anyone heard of his side project many moons ago called "Klerk Kant?" Excellent record!! Why it is not on cd is beyond me!!! Well now to my topic title! Does anyone dig FISHBONE? I love them man! From the EP with "Party at Ground Zero" to "Lyin' Ass Bitch" to the record "In Your Face" and then "Truth and Soul" to "The Reality of My Surroundings" and "Give a Monkey a Brain.................." and even "Chim Chim's Badass Revenge" are EXCELLENT!! Has anyone ever heard of "Skankin' Pickle?" Sort of that same melting pot genre! Killer ska, fused with heavy metal, reggae, soul, rap, punk rock and funk! The debut album "SKAFUNKRASTAPUNK" is great!! The others are sweet as well! This thread could sink like the Titanic, but hey I love these two bands!!! SKA ON!

Excellent record!! Why it is not on cd is beyond me!!! I used to have "Don't Care" on colored vinyl. Somewhere on vinyl i have a copy of ( i hope i remember correctly) The Rhthymatist. I think it was recorded in africa and is real heavy into the world beat sound. Highly recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUSHHEAD666 Posted September 11, 2006 Author Share Posted September 11, 2006 Right on! Glad to see a few of you know what I am into at the moment!! Fishbone does RULE live!! Hey Moonraker! The best place to start in the beginning for sure! You must get the first three albums! They are still in print and very cheap sealed!! The FISHBONE EP IN YOUR FACE TRUTH AND SOUL These are a must! If you dig those, then go for the rest!! Cheers! Earl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
