Background notes

Archive material and source history

Fishbone came out of Los Angeles in the 1980s with a sound that mixed funk, ska, punk, and soul. Angelo Moore fronted the band, and their live shows were known for being loud and energetic. They put out their first album, 'Truth and Soul,' which had upbeat funk and lyrics that looked at social issues.

Their music could be danceable and serious at the same time. Songs like 'Bonin' in the Boneyard' and 'Fight for Nutmeg' showed how they could blend different styles. The band kept putting out records like 'The Reality of My Surroundings' and 'Give a Monkey a Brain,' staying with their own sound even when it didn't fit neatly into what labels wanted.
