Big Car foreshadows what Fastball is better known for: driving riffs and catchy choruses wrapped around witty lyrics. Big Car was likely a victim of bad timing - a pop rock band stuck in-between hair bands, grunge, and pop divas didn't stand much of a chance. Fortunately the music scene settled down by the mid-1990s, giving these guys (as Fastball) the break they deserved.

"Mad At The World" by Big Car
Chances are you probably haven't heard of the band Big Car, which released their only record, "Normal", back in 1992. They will sound familiar, but you won't be able to put your finger on why. Here's why: two of the members, Miles Zuniga (vocals, guitar) and Joey Shuffield (drums), went on to form the more successful band called Fastball in 1995.
