The Bruce Lee Band is back at it, a year after its acclaimed Division In The Heartland EP—released a mere seven months after its predecessor, Rental!! Eviction!!! "Did You Find The Money Farm?" is the first single from the band's upcoming full-length album, ONE STEP FORWARD, TWO STEPS BACK, delivering a sneering indictment of the dehumanizing excesses that are in lockstep with Late-stage Capitalism. "You pattern your life after powerful people, follow the path through the door / one step inside and you'll never look back, you ride on the backs of the poor," vocalist Mike Park sings over ominous horns and an unrelenting rhythm. It's a serious message delivered with the loose swagger The Bruce Lee Band has perfected over the past few decades. "Did You Find The Money Farm?" also, marks the first musical collaboration between Park and Fishbone's Angelo "Dr. Madd Vibe" Moore.


Moore lends his skills as both a saxophonist and mesmerizing physical presence in the video, along with Park and trombonist Jeremy Hunter (JER, Skatune Network, We Are The Union.) The single and its upcoming LP, ONE STEP FORWARD, TWO STEPS BACK, were recorded over a raucous week-long session, where band members, including Jeff Rosenstock (The Arrogant Sons of B*tches, Bomb The Music Industry!,) Dan Potthast (MU330, Sharkanoid,) and Kevin Higuchi (Death Rosenstock) gathered and turned Mike Park's acoustic demos into full-bore, ear-buzzing anthems. The results highlight The Bruce Lee Band's uncanny ability to create songs that make your body move while your mind expands. Raining down fast, fun, exuberantly witty Ska Punk hits since 1994, The Bruce Lee Band has long showcased the creative brilliance of Mike Park, founder of D.I.Y. label mainstay, Asian Man Records.
