March 1998 :: Music F-H :: Fastbacks (Kurt Channing)
Fastbacks Win Lose or Both EP PopLlama The Fastbacks have made a career out of a trademark sound -- chunky power pop guitar sound behind angelic female harmonies -- but that doesn't mean that all albums sound the same. This EP (hardly an EP, with nine live bonus tracks) features more of the Fastbacks ...

December 1999 :: Music F-G :: The Fastbacks (Brian Kruger)
The Fastbacks The Day That Didn't Exist spinART Now moving into their 20th year(!), Seattle's Fastbacks continue to give us a reason to love the town that brought you grunge. Because they aren't. If you don't know about them, that's a shame. With girl vocals and two guitars buzzing away, Fastbacks ...

November 1999 :: Adjective City :: Fastbacks (Patrick Rafter)
Fastbacks The Day That Didn't Exist spinART Rockin' music with girly singing. I remember reading some good reviews of the Fastbacks in Maximum Rock N' Roll back in the day, but had never had the chance to listen. They've been around a whopping 20 years... whoah. That's back when punk was punk and this ...

December 1999 :: Music C :: Cafe Bleu (Anton Wagner)
... . Two weeks later, I still can't stop singing it at the odd moment. The Arrogants' "Lovesick" follows nicely in the girly fuzz pioneered by the Fastbacks, and Crooner's "Rachel" starts with a fairly innocuous mid-'80s groove, and culminates with a chorus -- "Rachel's on my case again/ and I can't ...

... a convincing "Your Good Girl's Gonna Go Bad," but can also scream out the singalongs with the best of them. "Black 'n Blue 4 U" sounds like a lost Fastbacks track, with delicious melody and velvety fuzz. "Mary's Lamb" starts with a twinkling riff then breaks down into East Bay chaos, with a whoa-oh ...

July 1998 :: Music M-O :: Micro Mini (Kurt Channing)
... , but because of the clever, punchy tracks contained within. Fans of the Rentals will find plenty to relate with here, as will fans of Flop and the Fastbacks (though Micro Mini is not as fuzzy as those last two). Catchy and fun, with opening lines like "I read your love poems/ And I think they're really ...

... track the Beatles made famous. "Us And Them" takes on a funky reggae flavor. This tine out, the Squirrels feature such luminaries as Kurt Bloch (Fastbacks), Skerik (Seattle funk-rock saxophone wonder), and the inimitable Tortelvis and Ed Zeppelin, courtesy of Dread Zeppelin. Not only is the musicianship ...

... ’s PopLlama label takes a more selective approach, carefully picking out bands that I’m guaranteed to like. The Young Fresh Fellows, the Fastbacks, the Smugglers and the Presidents of the USA are just a few of my all-time favorites, and the Nevada Bachelors continue that wonderful tradition ...

The Sunset Tavern's Anniversary Toga Party, featuring The Young Fresh Fellows, Huge Spacebird, and The Chris & Tad Show, at the Sunset Tavern in Seattle, WA on June 21, 2002. Event review by Steve Stav. Photos by Andrea Miller.
... the wild night with a mind-blowing display of talent. With local icon Scott McCaughey (also of The Minus 5 and R.E.M.) at the helm, this supergroup (Fastbacks guitarist Kurt Bloch, eternally-19-year-old drummer Hutchison, man-about-town Jim Sangster on bass) peppered their career-spanning song list ...

September1998 :: Music T-Z :: Tripping Daisy (Kurt Channing)
... fleeting moments of sound-alikeness -- brief passages where they sound exactly like Camper Van Beethoven, Flop, the Beatles, the Flaming Lips, the Fastbacks, Pixies, Brainiac, and several other well-credentialed bands. Whether this is intentional or not is a mystery to me. The end result is quite enjoyable ...
