"Fast Paced World by The Duhks was written in 2007 by Sarah Dugas, who had just joined the band with her brother,Christian. The Dugas siblings joined the band after the departure of original vocalist, Jessee Havey, and percussionist, Scott Senior, and brought with them ntimate relationships with Rock'n;roll, Afrobeat, and funk, adding to the bands cornucopia of acoustic traditions.
The song criticizes our societies obsession with personal possession, and the use of religion as a propaganda tool by the elite. Not surprisingly, it was criticized in The Washington Post, as a Monotonous Neo-Liberal Rant. This didn't prevent the band from playing it, nor fans from enjoying it, and dancing their butts off." ~ Leonard Podolak
