Loud, hard, heavy alternative rock with a side order of melody. Pulse-pounding rhythms, high-energy performance, and thought-provoking lyrics. Their energ
FISHKILL is a three-piece band that plays hard rock with an alternative style, featuring energetic songs that are fun to listen to and may make you think if you listen carefully. It's heavy guitar-based rock, although it has been classified as punk and 80's new wave rock. Singer/Songwriter Chris Nelson's vocal style has been compared to Joey Ramone (The Ramones), Mike Love (The Beach Boys), and Ray Davies (The Kinks). Bassist Jack Hawk and Drummer Mike Williams each add to the unique blend of styles, turning it into music that's built to last. The dynamic force they create while playng carries the audience into the excitement of the performance. In actuality Fishkill strives to define its own category within the musical framework of rock. The basic goal is to give the listener a good time, like a band playing at this great party or concert you were at that you'll never forget. It's all about fun, pure and simple and everything else is window dressing. Fishkill is a featured artist on WSVN's Hall Of Fame Volume 9, A WSVN Radio Christmas CD, and is now available on the Rhapsody/Real Jukebox and BuyMusic.com online digital music services.

Story behind the song
This song sort-of came to me during a daydream. I thought it would be funny to go on one of those talent contests like "Star Search" and play something unexpected like this song when it was time to go on, even though everyone else thought you were gong to play some melodic crap. This was the tune I envisioned myself playing.
Lyrics
Hidden Treasure Copyright 2003 Chris Nelson (BMI) Here we are going off again Just like we have during the past three hours Our life here sucks again How I wish that I had magic powers I woke up from that dream again Everything I have has just turned sour I want to throw up once again Can I please reclaim the last few hours? You want it? You got it No sense in denying pleasure You make me feel good beyond all measure I want it You have it Unlock your hidden treasure Do what you do to end all my displeasure--now Happily trapped in misery I bet you thought we’d be somewhere different Trading on our misery I can’t waste your time just to repent We all need our misery It only feels good ‘till the money’s spent I feed off my misery, Thriving off another tragic event You want it? You got it No sense in denying pleasure You make me feel good beyond all measure I want it You have it Unlock your hidden treasure Do what you do to end all my displeasure--now Why do you even care? My whole life is made up of excuses It’d be so easy not to care Watch me chasing elusive muses I couldn’t take if you didn’t care I need someone to shield me from abuses Please don’t say that you don’t care Replacing feelings with clever ruses
