Pop/punk band Faber Drive, Mission B.C's proudest, jumped onto the music scene with their debut album Seven Second Surgery in May of 2007, signing with 604 Records.Singles off of Seven Second Surgery give a taste of the "old" Faber Drive:
(1. Second Chance: An addicting love story crammed into 3 minutes and 42 seconds. (2. Tongue Tied: A foot tapping, slower beat song that touches on the trials of love. (3. When I'm With You: An emotionally charged ballad with string accompaniment. (4. Sleepless Nights (Never Let Her Go): Heartfelt vocals powerfully backed by instrumentals.
Their follow-up record is set to be released November 10th called Can't Keep a Secret.
The first single, G-Get Up and Dance, off the new album takes the band almost into un-chartered waters and is a 180 from what they brought to the table with hits from Seven Second Surgery.
At a recent Calgary show at the Gateway Restaurant and Bar, Krikit (Jeremy Liddle), bassist for Faber Drive and a member that's been in the band since the beginning said that fans can expect the new album to be a combination of newly inspired electro-pop, G-Get Up and Dance esque rhythms, but also original pop/punk vibes.
The single, G-Get Up and Dance successfully hits all the right notes with melodies filled with light beats, electronic edges and sing along, catchy lyrics that anyone can dance to. With such catchy and relatable lyrics for listeners, it shows that underneath the new album they still posses the"old" Faber Drive, that their fans love to love.
Another new transformation that is a biggy for the band is the recent addition of Jordan Pritchett on guitar and Andrew Stricko on drums with the absence of Calvin Lechner and David Hinsley.
It's been debated if the new additions of Pritchett and Stricko were the main inspiration for the upcoming album's melodic direction, but what can be said is that in anticipation for the album out in early November, fans will not be disappointed by any means.
