The Idea Factory

In 1979, legendary Seattle guitarist/producer Kurt Bloch formed The Fastbacks. They made bright, tight and explosive music that wasnt quite Punk, not quite Pop and totally distinct. When they disbanded in 2001, Bloch initiated a new band, Sgt. Major, recruiting Young Fresh Fellows band mate Jim Sangster and ex-Posie Mike Musburger. In 2007, the current incarnation took shape with Leslie Beattie (Cantona, Flatpack) on vocals. Theirdebut, The Idea Factory, contains Blochs trademark wit,optimism and feisty schoolboy angst. The 13 songs are a sort of controlled explosion, the recipe for which: take a 1960s pop music machine and stuff it with The Who and some Ramonesy punk rock. This is the VINYL release of the CD solicited in August
