New Fast Automatic Daffodils (also known as New FADS) were an alternative rock band from Manchester, England, formed in 1988 by Andy Spearpoint, Dolan Hewison, Icarus Wilson-Wright, Justin Crawford and Perry Saunders. The band had a distinctly more artistic and experimental style than many other bands associated with the then popular baggy/madchester style, music reminiscent of A Certain Ratio as well as Happy Mondays. Signed in 1990 to Play It Again Sam Records, their debut album, Pigeonhole, reached the UK top 50 in November. The band released nine singles and three albums before breaking up in 1996.
