New Fast Automatic Daffodils Biography by Ron DePasquale

While grunge reigned in the early '90s, New Fast Automatic Daffodils made its mark on the indie rock scene in Manchester, England. Bassist Justin Crawford, guitarist Dolan Hewison, and drummer Perry Saunders got together in 1988, and singer Andy Spearpoint joined soon after. Spearpoint's obscure lyrics spoken over repetitive riffs and beats gave NFAD's music a dream-like quality. While many bands of that era were preoccupied with displaying their angst on the world stage, NFAD was concerned with creating groovy, spacy music you could dance to. And they made plenty of it: three full-lengths, five EPs, and ten singles all in roughly four years.

New Fast Automatic Daffodils (a.k.a. "New FADs"; and shortened to "New Fads" for the third album) were an indie rock group from Manchester, England, active between 1988 and 1995. The group's early material was partly Madchester-inspired danceable guitar licks with deft and welcome touches of post-punk, funk, dub and Krautrock. The songwriting matured and expanded to encompass a broader emotional spectrum on the second album, "Body Exit Mind", and reached a creative zenith on the third album, "Love It All", the group's swan song.
