The chili peppers said they could not understand how Fishbone, a band that came out from the beginning with incredible rhythm and melody, were not celebrated as much or more than them. The chili peppers were allowed to grow into a band. Fishbone were a BAND from the very start.

Thirty years old and stands up to anything produced today 🤘🏻

People didn't understand it, and I don't understand THAT... They were insane at Lalapaloosa in Orlando. This is one of my very favorite songs. Metal with soul. When I saw them in Naples Florida at a club about 13 years ago, it was a very different, intimate gig. They didn't play Servitude, but they did Swim. This place was two stories tall with a loft and the stage was about a 6" riser, no separation whatsoever from the crowd. They were all crammed up there so Angelo was in the crowd most of the time. He appears in front of me and sticks the mic in my face so I sing along for a few seconds. Then, he locks his hands together and somehow I understand he wants me to launch him up above the crowd so he can surf around, so I did. I bought one of his comics with CD after. I've seen hundreds of shows and sing in bands as well. That was the coolest, most feel good show I've ever been to in my life. Thank you Angelo and Fishbone! I will never forget that.

I don't think some here realize how old Fishbone actually is. They've been making music since 1979.

Most people never learn. There's been music like this for over a 100 years. And almost nobody get the message. They just think its a good song and don't look at the lyrics

This is one of my favorite riffs ever and the lyrics are just amazingly poignant.

Who, who do you serve? For whose empire and for whose whims? Is your honor judged by men? Will you lie? Will you lie if they say it`s their will? Will you die or continue to kill? Until the generals all have their fill Craven cowards Armchair warriors You will serve them well What, what will you write? For whose pleasure, for whose delight? Will your readers see your light? Will you say... That the singer can`t blow you away? That we hate people just `cause they`re gay Women and children all stay away To whom, whom do you pray? Do dollars wash your sins away? Does God love cold hard cash? Do you say... If we all just continue to pay All our ailments will go away And our souls will be saved God`s not with you "Holy Roller" Your heart dwells in Hell Why, Why do you run? Our awareness has spoiled your fun Our eyes see you too clear Will you hide From the joy of expressing our pride For the leaders and people who`ve died While combating your genocide Chains are breaking Minds are waking Soon we`ll serve no more..

Idk but I like the cut of "old school" bands like this. They built as a ska band but weren't afraid to experiment with other genres and they killed it every single time. Kept it fresh. Kept it original. Most bands are kinda pussies now when it comes to variety. They're pressured by their labels and fans to keep a strict regiment on their sound. This was back when music was allowed to be fun, crazy, and free.

They play in many styles. So much talent in this band that even though they primarily play funk/ska they just nail the metal genre so well people think they are a metal band. This album is incredible, I highly recommend it!

Seen them a dozen times. In their prime, best live band, hands down. No contest. Fish one played so many styles and killed them all. Could not be forced into a box or label.

this tune alone melts in acid tons of hard rock shit we have been exposed to in the last 30 years... And yet the average metal head who may mistakenly buy a Fishbone album hoping to find something similar, will be doomed to failure, because with Fishbone, each song is a musical genre per se, that's how great they are

Fishbone had well written compositions . So underrated for a powerhouse band like this.

They are the prime example of Raw Talent....a lot of bands and singers need to take notes from these men

I saw Angelo shunned at an MTV interview with Maynard from tool. Fishbone should have been honored for what they are. This is an epic group. Fishbone is king.

That the Red Hot Chili Peppers are millionaires and Fishbone swim in obscurity sickens me to no end. I played in a band that supported Fishbone on the ROMS tour, just watching them soundcheck with Sunless Saturday was a sight to behold. They were completely motionless and playing harder with more intent than most bands would in a typical show. Fishbone along with the Bad Brains should have taken over the world.

Chris Dowd has an amazing voice!

Respect Fishbone.

Absolutely crushing it. The guitar note at 3:40 gives me goosebumps every time. He pulls that feedback and works it like a pro.

You just don’t see band like Fishbone anymore, it’s a real shame, peeps these days haven’t heard of them.

It has to be noticed Fishbone is one of the rare groups that allow people to express themselves in the comment section of their official channel.

FISHBONE DID BLOW UP IN THE MINDS OF MILLIONS DON'T GET IT CONFUSED FISHBONE SOLDIER !

Fishbone were such an influence when i was a young musician. They were unfortunately ahead of their time.

That sustained whammy note still crucifies me!!!

This song is all kinds of badass!

Dang. I can’t believe how fresh this still sounds. Oh the memories. Thank you Fishbone!

Criminally unappreciated for far too long.

Great band, rock, soul, reggae, Rnb, all in the mix, should have been far bigger than they was

i love everything fishbone has done, every phase of their evolution oozes awesomeness

One of my favorite bands ever. They never got their due. Those of us who knew, knew. I wish there had been more. But maybe that would have ruined things. Musically, the perfect overlap of in-your-face rock, shake-it-til-ya-break-it funk, and the exact amount of ska to make it effective without pigeonholing them. All done with SOUL. ALWAYS with soul. Lyricism that spanned from a modern day psalmist calling out from the broken (but still hopeful) heart of humanity that tomorrow will be better, to being the unflinching witness on the stand who will not be denied the opportunity to irrefutably call out the bull$%×+ tactics used to institutionally manipulate the masses against each other and keep us all in our socio-economic ranks. Nothing and no one else like them. Truth and Soul.

One of the best band ever. Criminally underated.

Fishbone is red hot FOREVER, baby!!! 930 club 198something I think 3 or 4. Shit I cant remember. but I know I smoked a joint with them between sets. They came out and saw me and asked where to score and I was already steady, eddy. I love these brothers.

This is something, a black rock band...DAMN!!!😎

I met Angelo once, class act! I was dumbfounded and lost my tongue. He just crept through the crowd at this music fest, nobody saw him but me. I approached the man and said, "you da man!" And we had a lovely chat. Just a great experience and great man! Plus we share the same b-day which I failed to share with.

A "Kendall Jones LIVE Cam" Blu-ray, I would buy in a heartbeat !! C'mon Fishbone, give it to us!

In support of your statement, many of those bands, to include 311, Sublime, No Doubt and many others were HEAVILY influenced by Fishbone. I would like to correct you on one thing, FIshbone had been on their 5th recording by the time Grunge was going mainstream. They had already smashed a few hundred mosh pits before Nirvana released "Nevermind". They are surely one of the most influential and diverse band in history. RHCP admits to FB being one of their biggest influences!!!
