Galaxy 500 is the third studio album by the American band Fetchin Bones. It was released in 1987 through Capitol Records. The album was produced by Don Dixon. The band supported the album with a North American tour.
Critical reception
The Washington Post wrote that, "paced by Hope Nicholls' assertive yelping, the quintet's Galaxy 500 claims shards of funk and metal." The Ottawa Citizen called Hope Nicholls's voice "flat, shrill and grating, an outcome made worse by the abundance of hard-edged material." The Orlando Sentinel opined that the album "shows the Bones are as wildly imaginative as R.E.M., the B-52's or any of the New South rock bands that have preceded them to prominence." The Charlotte Observer considered the "funky punk-rap" "Stray" to be the album's best track.
