Watch the video: https://lifeminute.tv/music/video/fishbones-your-face-turns-40-angelo-moore-and-christopher-dowd-music-friendship-and-what-comes-nextLegendary band Fishbone is still RED HOT. Decades into a career built on fearless genre-blending and high-energy performances, Angelo Moore and Christopher Dowd are still making music together and finding new ways to move Fishbone forward. The two musicians first met when they were just 12 years old in band class, beginning a friendship and creative partnership that would eventually become part of the foundation of Fishbone. Now, the band is celebrating the 40th anniversary of its 1986 debut full-length album, In Your Face, with the limited-edition double LP In Your Face / Cover Your Face. The release pairs a newly remastered edition of the original album with Cover Your Face, a tribute collection of artists reinterpreting Fishbone’s songs. Silversun Pickups took on “In the Air,” while Doom Regulator—featuring Tim Armstrong, Jesse Michaels, Joey Castillo and Spencer Pollard—reimagined “Simon Says ‘The Kingpin.’”The milestone isn’t only about looking back. Fishbone is also working on new music, with Dowd telling LifeMinute Editor-in-Chief Joann Butler that a new record is expected before the end of the year. She hopped aboard Fishbone’s tour bus during a spring New Jersey stop on the In Your Face 40th Anniversary Tourfor a stripped-down conversation with the band.Watch Moore and Dowd look back on In Your Face 40 years later and talk about the music—and momentum—still ahead for Fishbone.This is a LifeMinute with Fishbone.
