- About Me
- As the great city of Gotham undergoes its many phases only one thing remains the same FunkFace kicks ass .No doubt one of the greatest live rock bands going FunkFace are the nagging pain in the side of conformity, blending what you know with what you havent heard striving to split you in half with sonic fits of joy. So sweet and bitter at the same time .Hard driving grooves uplifting you to melodic chorus peppered with political rants hidden behind sweet come ons screamed at the top of your lungs.
The five piece unit has been blazin the New York massive for years. Lead singer Luqmans vocal assault stirs the swarm while the rhythm section Frank beans (bass) 40 oz Jeff (rhythm guitar ) and Ramsey Jones (drums) stagger the senses. Leaving Tim Grove (lead guitar) to ignite the hive into heated frenzy. Hard rock will never be the same; this bands sound has remnants of a punk age with a little twist of hip hop soul and ska. The ultimate fuse, total groove rock.
Mentioned in Fader magazine and in the Vibe, as the hardest hitting band in the world also featured in the documentary Afro Punk, as leaders of the black rock scene. Plus they are well know around the world as true stage destroyers ask any stage hand or concert carpenters. Still the band genre bending skills are evident in their multicultural look. All the different experience leads to many sounds that become one. FunkFace is posed for the attack and know one will be spared.
FunkFace latetest record has all the hard rock you could want, but the addition of a few slow rock ballad open up the band to an area never explored. Still they have created a large symphoinc sound a slight throw back to bands like the Verve.
FunkFace have played with many bands like the Distillers, Rage against the Machine, ApolloHeights, Bad Brains, 24-7 spyz,Fishbone,Murphy's Law,Tribe called Quest, Peaches, Tv on the Radio, Mike Ladd, and many, many more. Still the best way to experience this poliomyelitis is to shed your fears and succumb to the raging wave that is FunkFace.

Afro-punk is a platform for the other Black experience, the one we don't see in our media. D.I.Y (Do It Yourself) is the foundation.
