Fast Years– Young Heart
Brooklyn four-piece Fast Years formed in the Spring of 2011. The band plays a mix of 80's Punk, Surf Pop, and Indie Garage, with influences ranging from The Sonics to The Exploding Hearts.
They’ve had an online presence for all of 3 weeks now, including a free Bandcamp giveaway of lead track ‘Young Heart’, but their impact has been immediate. The band played their first ever live show on Friday to a full house alongside the white-hot Howler and St. Lucia in Brooklyn, crept in to the Hype Machine’s top 15 list, featured on last week's New to Q, as well as having picked up the following praise:
“The track goes near polar-throwback in it’s tendencies towards nostalgic Garage and Pop. Especially for those letting a renaissance of bands like The Vaccines still sink in” – blahblahblahscience
“sufficient bark to their garage stomp to merit a listen” – NME Radar Tip Of The Day
“Young Heart is a mile-a-minute, hook-a-plenty, good time jam that’s got us hot under the collar just now.” – Laissez Faire Club
"along the lines of Japandroids meets The Stroked meets The Vaccines – which we might broadly describe as a brilliant lo-fi sound...No doubt they will be here, there and everything sooner rather than later, but with tunes like these we’re sure as shit not complaining about it." - Killing Moon
