Album Review
Make Your Mama Proud may not be the most innovative album on earth, but it certainly isn't lacking when it comes to being free-spirited and inspired and having a healthy sense of fun. Greatly influenced by punk and new wave's reckless aggression, as well as power-pop's love of memorable hooks, Fastball is a band that rocks intensely but isn't without a strong melodic sense. A variety of comparisons can be made — everyone from the Knack, Elvis Costello and Generation X to the Beatles — but freewheeling numbers like "Knock It Down," "Human Torch" and "Back Door" show that these natives of Austin, Texas have an appealing energy of their own. At times, Fastball combines punk-ish sensibilities with early- to mid-1960s touches, two examples being "Are You Ready for the Fallout" and "Altamont." For those who like their power-pop with lots of bite, Make Your Mama Proud merits close attention.

Fastball is the best!
by EMJAY2024Incase anyone is wondering ... fastball is my favorite north american band topped only by Rammstein, however they sound nothing a like lol. This album is a little more hxc then their other stuff but it is a REALLY GREAT album. Personally I think seattle is the best song (story of my life) tracks 1,2,3,5,6,7,10,11,13,14 are awesome. Save yourself some dough and buy the whole album!
Great

you can kill yourself or you can make your mama proud
by Snoopyn00bthis album rules!! i would say the f word but i cant. This album never gets boring. Fastball is such an amazing band. A lot of people ask why the songs are short? Who cares!? theyre to the point. this album to me is like distorted guitars, good singing, and drum beats with the ride cymbals. great album it deserves six stars. peace.
