Today’s video of the day is Fishbone – "Last Call In America" released in 2025.
Fishbone returns in 2025 with a powerful new video for “Last Call In America.” The song is the second release from their upcoming album Stockholm Syndrome, out June 27, 2025. Known for their blend of ska, funk, punk, and soul, Fishbone continues to speak truth to power while making you move. Formed in Los Angeles in 1979, Fishbone made their mark with albums like Truth and Soul and The Reality of My Surroundings. They stood out with high-energy shows and socially conscious lyrics. Over the decades, their sound evolved, but their message stayed sharp.
“Last Call In America” shows the band in top form. The track features the legendary George Clinton, adding even more weight. Lyrically, it paints a grim but honest picture of America. Decades of struggle, little change. It’s a theme the band has explored since the beginning. This song continues that legacy with fresh urgency. The video, edited by Anuj Chaudary for Frequency Illusions, uses real news footage. It draws inspiration from Don Letts and The Clash’s “This Is Radio Clash.” The visuals connect past and present. They show how progress stalled, or even reversed. Meanwhile, performance clips from Fishbone’s 2024 Red Hot Holiday Tour highlight the band’s fire. The new lineup looks energized, tight, and ready to lead the charge.
Stockholm Syndrome finds Fishbone sounding both familiar and renewed. The album builds on their past work while pushing forward. Like earlier releases, it mixes genres freely and speaks out boldly. But this time, the message cuts even deeper. “Last Call In America” fits naturally within Fishbone’s long catalog of protest songs. It recalls the raw urgency of tracks like “Sunless Saturday” and “Party at Ground Zero.” Yet it feels fresh, driven by today’s headlines and today’s pain. This video and song show why Fishbone still matters. They still challenge, still dance, and still fight. And with Stockholm Syndrome, they remind us that the last call has not yet been answered.
