It’s a fairly frequent story to hear that ex-band members leaving their old band, and then come together to form a whole different band, but when your new project gets dubbed as the “Rage Against The Machines” of the current generation, you know they’ve struck the right chord.
Comprising of vocalist Jason Butler (ex-Letlive), drummer Aric Improta (Night Verses), and guitarist Stephen Harrison (The Chariot), The L.A based trio has made themselves known with their lock and load gnashing guitars, guttural beats, and brazenly bold bars, all coming together in an almighty mix that brings the attitude of punk, the energy of rock, and the social activism that’s sorely lacking in the world.
“Fever 333 started as a movement, which is much greater than the music,” exclaims Butler who founded the band.
“We started talking about black punk rock,” he recalls. “Punk rock and hip-hop are one-in-the-same. They’re always flying the flag of channeling art from discord. Travis and John supported my desire to create something a little dangerous that was subservice: musically and in ethos. We opened the floodgates together. We make it ostensibly clear that everything we do is in an active effort for change. It’s about bringing back that socio-political mindfulness. We’re trying to write the soundtrack to the revolution that we know is about to happen.”
Their debut EP, ‘Made an America’ speaks of Jason’s vision. “We’ve got a black guitar player, mixed race singer, and white drummer,” he goes on. “There’s a purpose.”
