The music you’re hearing now is by San Francisco punk band The Yes-Go’s. They try to include a couple of new songs in each of their live shows to make sure the audience is really paying attention. Animals inspire lots of their music, even when it's not really about animals. The Yes-Go’s have a rare daylight show on Saturday April 6 at Thee Parkside in San Francisco, starting at 3pm.

They're a band that describes themselves as a team dedicated to getting rid of evil in galaxies and recording their tales in song.

Nebula Force, Go's Facebook page also says "you're going to love hearing about zombies, robots, dinosaurs and undead radioactive Godzilla".

The song available below features one of those areas . . . it's about dinosaur bones.

Where does the band name come from? It's a reference to Power Rangers, and let's just leave it at that.
