For over four decades, Fishbone has stood as one of music’s most defiant and visionary forces—a sonic volcano erupting with punk, ska, funk, soul, hard rock, and unflinching social commentary. Fronted by the electrifying Angelo Moore, the Los Angeles-bred band built its name on chaotic brilliance, truth-telling lyrics, and performances that blurred the line between concert and spiritual exorcism. Now, in 2025, Fishbone is not just looking back on its legacy—they're reclaiming it.
On June 27, Fishbone releases its long-awaited ninth studio album, Stockholm Syndrome—the first full-length LP in over two decades. The album signals a bold new era: as raw, urgent, and rebellious as anything in their catalog, yet sharpened by decades of experience, reinvention, and refusal to fade away.
The result is an album that roars with relevance.
From beginning to end, Stockholm Syndrome is a whirlwind of infectious melody, urgent messaging, and unfiltered energy. Produced by Fishbone, Aryon Davis, and Chris McGrew, and mixed by Cameron Webb, the album even includes a bonus CD track provocatively titled “My God Is Better Than You’re Gawd.” The message is clear: Fishbone is still challenging hypocrisy, still celebrating liberation, and still impossible to ignore.
At the center of it all is Angelo Moore—a performer as magnetic as he is mercilessly honest. A saxophonist, vocalist, poet, and provocateur, Moore has long fused musical genius with social urgency. His onstage presence is unmatched: a shape-shifting force of acrobatics, soul revival, and punk sermon.
“I don’t just perform—I transform,” Moore declares. “My music isn’t just entertainment—it’s alchemy. It’s liberation. It’s the sound of someone who refuses to look away.”
Fishbone will join Less Than Jake’s Summer Circus Tour beginning June 7, bringing their legendary live chaos to cities across the U.S. They’re also set to appear at Warped Tour 2025, with key stops in Long Beach and Washington, D.C., ready to school a new generation on what real genre disruption sounds like.
Fishbone is not here for nostalgia. They’re here to reignite.
Stockholm Syndrome is both a battle cry and a celebration—music that provokes as much as it grooves, music that dances on the edge of collapse, only to burst into freedom. With Moore leading the charge, Fishbone is once again smashing the silence, exposing the rot, and proving that their voice—loud, lyrical, and utterly fearless—is more vital than ever.
In the words of Dr. Madd Vibe himself:
“I don’t write controversy—I write truth. And the truth is uncomfortable when you’re used to being lied to.”
On June 27, the truth comes with horns, distortion, rhythm, and revolution. Fishbone is back. And they never left.
