Goldfinger at its best!

Also on "hang-ups", their second album, give Goldfinger again powerful gas. 1997 just a year after the debut of "Goldfinger", the quartet from California delivers 14 fresh-cheerful pop, punk ska songs. Goldfingers Auftag: Making the world a little sunnier.

Increasingly she will be supported by an eight-man horn section. Beachfeeling with Offbeat ("I need to know"), the wonderfully laid-back comes along, or in "this lonely place" they bring as convincingly over as polynuclear punk rock blast ("Question" and "The Last Time").

Not to forget the vitamin bomb right at the beginning: "Superman" is absolutely amazing on the plate! In "smp" let even hanging out the evil Hardcoreler, only 59 seconds short slip, the one of the band like to forgive.

Common only that they leave us alone to grade times 35 minutes in a world that is not nearly as sunny as it feels after listening to the plate. But they come back again - after 35 long, silent minutes idle return Goldfinger back to the furious finale.
