That’s right, folks! The rumors are true. CJ RAMONE is
joining the Fat fold! September marks the 25th anniversary
of CJ’s initiation into punk rock’s royal “family,” and to
celebrate Fat is releasing the single Understand Me?,
featuring the head-bopping melodic garage-punk title track
addressed to an unnamed listener who really doesn’t seem to
understand him. Backing RAMONE on the single (and the
upcoming full-length Last Chance To Dance) is the same
all-star unit he pulled together for his 2012 solo debut: Dan
Root and Steve Soto from The Adolescents and David
Hidalgo Jr. of Social Distortion. Packing in even more punk
rock star power, the single’s non-album b-side is a cover of
Black Flag’s “Rise Above,” featuring guitar and background
vocals by Dez Cadena of Black Flag and the Misfits.
