NEW FAST AUTOMATIC DAFFODILS ; Stockholm

[StellaArcher]

I literally JUST discovered the tune. Heard it on the radio and it remined me a lot of the smiths. Love it! Can anyone tell me a bit more about this band? Do they still exist? Where are they from? When were they active?

[brapbrapist]

@StellaArcher they split up 1995 made 3 albums.ive got a few vids i made myself on my channel just because there isnt enough on you tube.hope you check them out.

[inkestia]

fantastic tune...never knew there was a vid.

I ALWAYS COME BACK HERE ON THE CIDER LOL

[notmarkatall]

In a landscape blighted by X Factor / Pop Idol/ Gayboy bands with their limp, derivative drivel that is only fit for ten year old retards, this is a beacon of light; love it !

[rdc034]

wicked

[andymac1873]

I must be drunk I feel unsteady aha !

[j0hnnytourettes]

[dazmalski]

...walk back into...

[seangmac]

i agree,fanfuckingtastic

[bugebug]

Love these guys!

[gasoel]

One of my favorite bands from the 90's. Big Rick Stewart and Steve Master would always know what you were talking about when you wanted this played on the original live 105 in San Francisco.

[JoyceeBannercheck]

I must be drunk I feel unsteady ahaaaaaaa

@JoyceeBannercheck

You'll soon be dust - you're deeds already are....

I love to feel the food in my GUTS!

[cheapy2006]

@gittylicious AND THE FAT IN MY VEINS!!!!!!!!!!!!

[andymac1873]

I loved the new fads they were awesome great tune seen them twice at cities in the park festival Manchester in 91 and king tuts in Glasgow later that year ! They were fucking amazing both times ! Andy spearpoint it's time you got your band on the road again !

[moff000]

another class tune :-)

[99bobalot]

Class!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[wollorama]

The Fads were fantastic. A shame they never made it big time!

Saw them once in Sittard (The Netherlands) and that still remains one of my favourite gigs ever. Makes you realize how long ago it is that really great bands emerged!

[Mindhorn100]

God i loved this band, should have been massive. miles ahead of the Inspirals and quite few other of their contempories.

Saw them live at the Venue in New Cross!

Long time ago now

[pabloschz]

this song has a fucking awesome guitar solo

[floridaESP]

they were a great band that wrote some fantastic songs...they should have been enormous.

i got to know them, they played in Lausanne & Geneva when i lived over there 1991-97...had 2 great nights with them !!!!

[gasoel]

Thanks so much for posting. I concur with sqTake2 below.

[micmacmoc]

take me back.... Norfolk rock?

sure is a strange county.....no firey bushes a..ahhhhhh.......

[sqTake2]

I must be old, I'll take it easy, ahhhahhhh ....

Why this band never made it will always be a mystery. Many thanks for posting this and please find more!

[DumpBeezz]

God I have missed this song. Such a time warp back to the mid 90's for me. Great memories blasting this tune in the car.

[punkrockerRHCP80]

soooooooooo good

[Brianeddie666]

I must be drunk, i feel unsteady AAAAAHHHH HHHAAAAAAAA!!

[JoyceeBannercheck]

Not fucking wrong

[ZeDollyDots]

one of my favorite songs ever.

i don't understand nobody in belgium knows this band while this song was a huge radio hit.

[misteriks77]

hey, i'm belgian and i do have all their albums ;) best live band of the 90ties, by faaaar !

[bakaboyo]

Why should anyone in Belgium know them? Sweden perhaps given the song title...

[Marniefarnie]

They were signed to Belgian record label Play It Again Sam and often gigged in Belgium - the second album was recorded in Brussels.

[bakaboyo]

Fair enough. I hang my head...

[frillonandu]

one of the most under rated bands of all time. 5 stars

[juggernaut498]

will they reunite?

[Belgradelove]

I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeee this fucking brilliant english band ...

[Kronocide]

Pop was never better than New FADS.

[Mondrin]

join facebook group 'New Fast Automatic daffodils must tour again' :-)

[hockeyteeth]

awesome shit, makes me go back to high school. 102.1 the edge toronto, canada. dan- niagara falls, new york, usa

[jimboessex]

Agreed eckmacdonald,

Saw them a few times in late 80's early 90's, and they were simply superb everytime. First album is pure genius, this album is not there, but almost!

Fair play to Andy how is now a drum teacher,but what about Icarus?

[eckmacdonald]

Best band in manchester at that time! Best gig ive been too anyway and ive been to a few!

[stonedscum]

want to see Life As An Accident video.help.

[misteriks77]

do they still exists ? i got all the albums and one other when they switched to new fads...

awesome underrated band !

[rfranquinho]

i've just recently became aware of the existence of this band, and i'm glad i did it, i just love this song!!! "no monster me sadly no saint either!" hahaha ;)

[bakaboyo]

They did a song live back in about '94 which I guess was called "Justify Me"-unbelievably good but never saw it anywhere else. Anybody know what the hell I'm talking about cos I can still remember it clearly (despite struggling to remember what I did yesterday)?

[Dalmatinac75]

great band. so much better than 99% of today's crap...

[andymac1873]

this band were so under rated its unbelievable ! its time for the phoenix to rise from the ashes again ! shit fucking hot

[robbyhilly]

possibly the best band on earth at the time. enough said.

[SPXclothing]

SO GREAT!

[digsterinthehouse]

fucking ace band! and yeah man they were outstanding live-saw em a fair few times.just gonna go through my 12's now I reckon.

[allmodcons1965]

what a band great live as well.

[misteriks77]

make me jaleous :/

[TheMadFerret]

Fantastic song from a fantastic Band!!

[mydantube]

woo - haven't heard this for yonks.

[skey1973]

My brother had this album on cassette when it came out, I loved it then. Bought it on amazon recently and fell in love with it all over again. Brilliant, emotive, passionate, angry, funky, unique music.
