SINGLE REVIEW: Superman Curl - Fast as She Can

Superman Curl are back, and they’re not wasting any time easing in. ‘Fast as She Can’ is a two-minute blast of pure energy—fizzy, playful, and packed with the kind of excitement that makes you want to hit repeat the second it ends. After over a decade away, they’ve returned with something that feels fresh yet totally in tune with their roots—uptempo, punchy, and absolutely addictive.

There’s nothing overly polished or complicated here, and that’s exactly what makes it so effective. Hooky riffs, bright, driving drums, and raw, genuine vocals keep things locked into a perfect groove, while the gang vocals inject a real celebratory feel. The song has a retro charm, capturing the rebellious spirit of punk and the DIY ethos of garage rock in a way that feels effortless rather than forced. Twinkling keys add another layer of throwback sparkle, giving the song that extra buzz of personality. It’s a great blend of punk’s carefree, reckless streak and garage rock’s raw energy, and it never loses sight of what makes those genres so addictive.

Superman Curl know exactly what they’re doing, and ‘Fast as She Can’ proves they haven’t lost a step. The energy is relentless, the melodies are sharp, and it’s just flat-out exciting and fun. It’s not overthought, not overproduced—just a straight-up, punchy, infectious garage rock banger. I love it!
