Here's some great music I wanted to share with you guys tonight. I love this band! They have a unique sound, a little bit funky, metal rap thing going on. Actually, they are about the only Rap/ Metal band, I can think of that I listen to.
"The band's name came from the nickname that the lead singer Rob Werthner and his buddies gave his ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend, back in the 90s. The new boyfriend was a NYPD officer.who sported a 1970s parted and feathered hairstyle, like the Bee Gees or something. When Rob and his friends saw him they'd say, "Here comes that hot action cop."
I've been rocking to them since 2003. I downloaded Nutbag EP from Napster(who remembers Napster?) in 2003, after hearing their song, Going down on It, in the skateboard movie, Grind. They also had some success with the single "Fever for the Flava" just from internet support and touring. "Fever for the Flava" was featured in many movies, and also appeared in episodes of the shows such as: King of the Hill, Malcolm in the Middle, Smallville, and Boston Legal. Werthner also wrote the theme song for the Samuel L. Jackson and Colin Farrell's film, S.W.A.T..
Another good song from that cd was Club Slut. This performance they did at Atlantic is so sick!
