CD Review – Fear Nuttin’ Band

CD Review – Fear Nuttin’ Band
Limited Edition EP
Bodog Music

Produced by Terry Date (Soundgarden, Unearth), this Bad Brains clone meets a quasi-Fishbone hybrid, has in fact mulled over their influences and dropped a 4-track ep that somewhat slakes your thirst for a modern day hero in the Reggae-Rock genre. Of course, having dreads or an authoritative sounding ragamuffin rant does not necessarily give this an official seal of approval. More Metal, more Dancehall. Please.

With The Red Hot Chili Peppers seeping in a little too much on “Can’t Get Mi Weed”, your eyebrows might raise on their own. Without a doubt, the Fear Nuttin’ Band probably kill on the live circuit, so no point in breaking balls on a 4 -song EP. Their previous effort “Vibes” has been given a few kind words.

Let’s wait until the album drops and see if they can instill some fear in the heart of the music-buying public. Wherever they are.
Track Listing:
1. Rule the World
2. Police State
3. Can’t Get Mi Weed
4. Fear (Old Crusty Version)
