For punk rock fanatics, 2017’s version of Halloween is now a bit more exciting – Reel Big Fish will join a wide array of punk rock bands as being a featured artist on the release of Punk Rock Halloween: Loud, Fast & Scary via Cleopatra Records, a compilation featuring 27 tracks.
Aaron Barrett and crew have achieved many accolades throughout their career spanning back to 1991 when the Huntington Beach ska-punk ensemble were founded. 26 years later, RBF is as widespread as ever and continue to expand their impressive resume. Barrett remains the only original member however, as lineup changes have occurred and 
several band members have come and gone across the last two decades. One thing that has not changed – their thirst for touring and their ability to continuously appear at the top of the bill of notable festivals and events.
For Reel Big Fish’s contribution to the compilation specifically, their track “Evil Approaches” appears to be a remastered version of the track originally performed by ska notables Forces of Evil which was a side-project formed by Aaron Barrett. The track originally appeared on FOE’s EP from 2005 entitled Four Song Obituary.
Other notable artists featured on the compilation record include Guttermouth, 999, The Adolescents, Buck-O-Nine and more. Check out “Evil Approaches” below and grab your copy of Punk Rock Halloween: Loud, Fast & Scary by clicking HERE!
