The Fauves - Good Times Coming

On the Fauves official website (www.thefauves.com) you'll find a rather humourous (and at times bitingly bitter and brutally honest) discography. From what they've listed it seems that this single will never see an official release, which is a shame because "Good Times Coming" is a rather good song.

Probably more than any other aussie band in recent memory, The Fauves have fallen victim to being an intelligent band in a market that thrives on easily digestible, minimum effort music. That has left them with the label of difficult, which is an unfortunate tag for such a talented band to wear. I'll admit to being a fan, and perhaps a little biased but i still believe the Fauves have something to offer anyone who's willing to put in the effort.

The 3 accompanying BSides are all worth a listen, and would fit comfortably on any Fauves release, they all have that Fauves vibe about them completely unique and a sarcastic humour to boot, is "When the Tour Went Pro" really an ode to the green green grass of golfing fairways or is there a hidden message, give it a chance i'm sure you'll see what i mean.
