Release Notes:
Along with No Doubt, Sublime, and Rancid, the Los Angeles quartet Goldfinger
helped contribute to a mini-U.S. ska-punk movement in the mid- to late '90s. The
group was originally formed in 1994 by ex-Electric Love Hogs guitarist/singer
John Feldmann and bassist/singer Simon Williams (who were both working at the
same shoe store at the time), in addition to drummer Darrin Pfeiffer and an
unnamed second guitarist (who would leave the group before any recordings could
be issued and later become a pro surfer in Costa Rica). A friend of Feldmann's,
Charlie Paulson, signed on shortly thereafter, playing his first show with the
group just a day after being given a tape of their songs to learn. A six-track
demo EP, Richter, was issued in 1995 and received favorable reviews and a
substantial amount of airplay on college radio, leading to Goldfinger signing a
major-label contract with Universal. Their self-titled full-length debut hit the
record racks a year later, spawning the popular single/video "Here in Your
Bedroom" (a track that originally appeared on their EP), and the group toured
alongside the Sex Pistols, No Doubt, Reel Big Fish, and the multi-band festival
the Vans Warped Tour.
Their second full-length, Hang-Ups, was released in 1997, and although the album
failed to live up to the expectations set by their debut, Goldfinger stayed in
the public eye with their cover of the Spiral Starecase song "More Today Than
Yesterday," featured in the soundtrack of the hit Adam Sandler movie The
Waterboy. Williams left the band in 1998, replaced by a former bandmate of
Feldmann's from Electric Love Hogs, Kelly Lemieux, and Goldfinger debuted their
new lineup with the eight-track all-covers live EP Darrin's Coconut Ass: Live a
year later. The quartet's third studio release, Stomping Ground, was issued in
2000 as the group toured both Europe and the U.S. (during their tour of England,
Goldfinger recorded one of their sets, issuing the live Foot in Mouth, available
only at shows and through the band's official website). Come 2001, it was
Paulson's turn to jump ship, replaced by Brian Arthur (formerly of the Texas
alt-metal outfit Unloco), as Goldfinger's first studio album for their new
label, Jive/Zoomba, was issued in 2002 with Open Your Eyes. Disconnection Notice
from 2005 found the group switching to the Maverick label. By 2008, however,
Paulson was back on board, and the band released Hello Destiny... on the punk
label SideOne Dummy.
