Say what you will about Fishbone, but you can't deny that they still enjoy what they do -- blasting out furious punk-funk to this very day. Despite many lineup shake-up's (only three original members are 'left standing' -- Angelo Moore, Norwood Fisher, and 'Dirty' Walter Adam Kibby II) and record company shifts, the group continues to roll along. In 2001, Fishbone had come up with a new batch of originals, which they laid down at a 'free community recording studio,' the Henhouse. The entire sessions were videotaped, with the only rule being to 'leave your shoes at the door' (which, as proven by a shot in the opening sequence, was an actual rule!). With new band members in tow, the recording of six tracks are chronicled, including the intense Frayed F*cking Nerve Ending, which does a fine job of capturing the recording process -- warts and all. It turns out that Moore is the leader of the band in the studio, but he's not above getting his ideas either shot down or questioned, as he attempts to work an elaborate Theremin part into one of the songs, much to the chagrin of the other members. Also included are interviews from outside the studio with Moore (who gives a tour of his self-described 'humble abode') and Fisher (who discusses his unique hairstyle -- a cross between an antennae and a unicorn). Also included are several bonus bits, including a pair of tracks recorded at the Henhouse by the Fisher-led side project, Trulio Disgracious. Nothing as dramatic as Some Kind of Monster here folks, but still a worthwhile view for any serious Fishbone fan. ~ Greg Prato, Rovi
