Pure Power Pop Bliss for Now People,
By A Customer
This review is from: Day That Didn't Exist (Audio CD)
Another year brings another pop masterpiece from the indefatigable Fastbacks, "The Day That Didn't Exist." Nineteen years of relative anonymity seem to have done little to extinguish the spirit that could produce the hope in the face of heartbreak of "Goodbye, Bird," or the aching need to be heard of "I Was Stolen."Buy this record and jump around the house pretending you can play guitar in mid-air like Kurt Bloch. Buy this record and love the Fastbacks' "little heart up there on fire." Miss it at your peril.

This review is from: Day That Didn't Exist (Audio CD)
This is one great album. No questions asked, buy this- it will rock your world like no other. Kurt Bloch is one of the greatest song writers of all time and he kicks ass on lead guitar. This cd is chock full of classic fbx melodies, with hooks galore, complete with Kim and Lulu's brilliant vocal harmonies and Mike Musburger's powerhouse, top notch drumming. Sad to see that this legendary Seattle band are no more. This is their masterpiece...next to other classic records like "Very, Very Powerful Motor" and "Zucker" and "And His Orchestra".Long live the Fastbacks, one of the greatest bands in rock history. Goodnight Now, Mike A. Sacramento

Another feather in their cap,

This review is from: Day That Didn't Exist (Audio CD)
The Fastbacks would put all other bands to shame if they were those kind of people. Instead they just inspire, and this record is no exception. As good as any other Fastbacks album, "Goodbye Bird," "Like Today," and "I Was Stolen" would be chart toppers in a more just and intelligent universe.

Another great Fastbacks CD,
By Gary Levin (CHICAGO, IL. USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Day That Didn't Exist (Audio CD)
If you like great catchy "pop-punk" songs with the best female vocals in rock, the Fastbacks are for you. All of their LPs are great, this one no exception. Instantly catchy. Like the Muffs? They love the Fastbacks! Get this and all of the great Fastbacks records. See them live before you die!!

Power Punk Pop Personified,
By Two Tub Man (Madison, Wisconsin) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Day That Didn't Exist (Audio CD)
Name one other band that could put out their best album after20 years.With the exception of the almighty Dictators new album, no one! Every FBX album,has been a gem,but this one tops 'em all. Great guitar work,the always cool vocals of Kim & Lulu, killer-bee drumming by Mike Musburger,and most of all,the ace songwriting of Kurt Bloch. I'm 48,I've heard thousands of albums over the years,and I'd put "The Day That Didn't Exist" in my Top 10 of all time. Let's hope they've got another decade or two left in 'em,they have been & continue to be one of the best bands around. |
