The release of "Fast Edee" coincides with the launch of their sophomore album, Going Nowhere Fast, marking a significant milestone in the band’s rapidly evolving journey.
"Fast Edee" isn’t just a song; it’s an experience. The track pulses with the raw energy that ZEBEDEE is known for, blending psychedelic rock with an infectious groove that keeps listeners hooked from start to finish. The accompanying video, directed by the band members themselves, captures the chaotic, colorful, and often surreal vibe of New York City. It’s a perfect visual counterpart to the music, with scenes that include late-night subway rides, neon-lit street corners, and spontaneous rooftop jam sessions. The video reflects the spontaneity and unfiltered creativity that have become synonymous with ZEBEDEE’s identity.
The DIY approach to the video gives it an authentic, gritty feel, highlighting the band’s commitment to staying true to their artistic vision. By taking the reins of the creative process, ZEBEDEE has produced a piece that is uniquely theirs—bold, unconventional, and unmistakably rooted in the spirit of NYC.
Going Nowhere Fast, the group’s sophomore album, is a testament to their growth and experimentation as a band. Building on the foundations laid by their debut album, ZEBEDEE explores new sonic territories while retaining the psych-rock core that their fans love. The album is a journey through soundscapes that range from the intensely rhythmic to the deeply introspective, with each track offering something new and unexpected.
The title, Going Nowhere Fast, is a nod to the frenetic pace of life and a reflection on the paradox of speed and stagnation, where everything moves quickly but often feels like it's going nowhere. The album captures this essence, with tracks that fluctuate between high-energy anthems and slower, more contemplative pieces. Tracks like "Fast Edee" and "What's That?" are standout examples of ZEBEDEE’s ability to merge their psych-rock roots with contemporary influences, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and forward-thinking. The band’s use of reverb-drenched guitars, swirling synths, and driving bass lines creates a lush, immersive listening experience that is as exhilarating as it is thought-provoking.
ZEBEDEE has always been about pushing boundaries, and with Going Nowhere Fast, they’ve solidified their place in the modern psych-rock scene. Their music is a testament to the power of creativity and the importance of staying true to one’s artistic vision. As they continue to evolve, ZEBEDEE remains a band to watch, with a sound that is as unpredictable as it is unforgettable.
