Following the tragic murder of George Floyd, FEVER 333 vocalist Jason Aalon Butler spent 13 days in the streets as he marched on the frontlines of rebellion in Los Angeles.
On the 14th day, he came home and wrote what would become ‘WRONG GENERATION’.
Butler commented on BITE BACK’s origins: “Everything in this song was what I’d seen during those 13 days and what I felt needed to happen. I saw buildings burn. I saw fights. I saw white allies stepping in front of the National Guard because they knew they had a power those black bodies behind them did not. What did you expect? When you put any creature in a corner for so long and show them how quickly life can be taken from them, I don’t know what other option there is but fighting back.”
BITE BACK is available now on all streaming platforms with pre-orders for WRONG GENERATION available at this link.
