Fishbone (EP)
Fishbone is the recording debut of alternative group Fishbone. This six-song EP was released in 1985 and captures the band at the height of their early funk/ska era. The track Party at Ground Zero remains one of the band's most popular tracks.
The track "V.T.T.L.O.T.F.D.G.F." is believed to stand for "Voyage to the Land of the Freeze-Dried Godzilla Farts" and is about a government attempt to convince the public that Hiroshima was actually caused by Godzilla farting.
