Reel Big Fish are one of the best Ska/punk bands of today. that isn't a fact, thats just my opinion, but it is an opinion shared by many.

Reel Big Fish's sound isn't exactly original. They sound a lot like Less Than Jake, well except for the singer. But of course that is to be expected....i mean they ARE both ska/punk, so it isnt surprising. And like Less than Jake they have some very funny song names. 'She Has A Girlfriend Now', 'I Want Your Girlfriend To Be My Girlfriend Too', 'F*ck Off Song' and 'Why Do Girls Think They're Fat?' are just a couple of examples of it. And the lyrics are just as whacky, if not more so, then the names!!!

The likes of "i never thought it would end like/this just because i've got no t*tss/i'll shave my legs/i'll wear a bra/i'll even cut my p*nis off for you..." prove that htese guys have a sense of humour!!!

The members of Reel Big Fish at the moment are :

Matt Wong - Bass
Dan Regan - Trombone
Aaron Barrett - Guitar/Vocals
Scott Klopfenstein - Trombone/Vocals
Carlos De La Garza - Drums

And their Discography reads something like this.....:

Everything Sucks (Album)(1995)
Everything Sucks (EP)(1998)
Turn The Radio Off (Album)(1996)*4 Presses*
Teen Beef (7" Vinyl)(1997)*3 Presses*
Keep Your Reciept (EP)(1997)
Vacation In Palm Springs (7" Vinyl)(1998)*2 Presses*
Why Do They Rock So Hard? (Album)(1998)

Along the way the bands has released 5 singels (Sellout, Beer, Take On Me *2 Presses*, She Has A Girlfriend Now and Setup (You Need This)) and made appearences on many Soundtracks including the BASEKetball soundtrack.

Judging by their discography and the fact that they tour constantly, it is easy to see that this band deserve all the publicity that they get.....and anyone who disagrees deserves to be strung-up upside down!!!

Reel Big Fish RO
CK!!!!!!!
