Today's Song of the Day, as chosen by Larry Mizell, Jr., host of the Afternoon Show on KEXP, is "Estranged Fruit" by Fishbone and NOFX, a 2023 single from Bottles To The Ground.
Today's Song of the Day commemorates the 30-year friendship between ska legends Fishbone and punk group NOFX. The single features NOFX's El Hefe on trumpet and Fat Mike on guest vocals. Fat Mike also produced the band's latest EP — their first new release in nearly a decade — and is releasing it via his new label Bottles to the Ground.
“Fishbone is the one band I’ve always wanted to produce ever since NOFX toured with them in 1992," Fat Mike said via a press release. "When I got the chance two years ago… I fucking gave it everything I got! I fucking love this band so much as friends and musicians, but I may like this record even more! I thank all of them for the opportunity.”
