Faster Faster is a band from Brunswick, Georgia, United States.
The final line-up for Faster Faster was formed in July 2007 by five musicians. Kyle (vocals), Randall (vocals/guitar), Ryan (guitar), Steuart (drums), and Joey (bass) were all previously members of other local bands in and around Brunswick, Georgia that were predominantly hardcore groups but found a softer sound they felt was more fitting after leaving their grungy tunes behind. The band's popularity skyrocketed after hundreds of listeners logged on to their Myspace profiles to listen to their music.
Producing a glimpse of their potential hit songs, Pillow Talk 101 was released on the south Georgia record label Still Movement Records after several months of brainstorming and recording. Shortly thereafter, they paired up with Matt Vigliotti and Eccentric Energy Entertainment to manage the band and help with touring.
After two years of playing live shows and critiquing their work, Faster Faster, with bigger dreams of success than ever, released their freshman, full-length album Hopes and Dreams in August 2008 on Oort Records, a sub-label of Lobster Records.
After the release of their debut full-length CD, Faster Faster launched a nationwide tour, traveling outside the east coast to cities including New York City, New York; Tallahassee, Florida; and Chicago, Illinois. The band has toured with other up-and-coming bands from along the east coast and opened for bands of notoriety in their genre such as Mayday Parade, School Boy Humor, and Farewell. They were also featured on AMP Magazine's 21 Young Guns of 2009 compilation CD.
As of late 2008, Faster Faster began working on their second studio album. Around Christmas they released a new song, "You're Killing Me Smalls".
Three demos have surfaced since, via the website Absolute Punk and the band's Myspace and purevolume pages. These demos are entitled "170 as Usual" "The Weekend" and "Word of Advice You're A Joke". At recent shows they have unleashed at least three other new songs, including one named after a scene from the movie Step Brothers, "The Catalina Wine Mixer".
In September 2009 rumors began to spread of Faster Faster's demise. None of the reasons supplied by fans have been confirmed. On September 22, 2009 they released a statement via Myspace that they were officially through with the band.
