Faker was formed in Sydney, Australia, in 1996. It initially consisted of Nathan Hudson, Paul Youdell, Chris Deal, Marco2000 and Andrew Day. The band spent five years performing small gigs around Sydney. They also released two EPs in this time: Sound Out Loud released 5 March 2001 and Kids on Overload released 15 October 2001. Both these EPs were released to minor success,[1] however, Teenage Werewolf was put onto heavy rotation by Triple J and remains a fan favorite. Due to a planned move to France, Marco2000 left Faker in 2000 just after the recording of the band’s debut Sound Out Loud EP and the band continued sans clavier. Faker were joined in 2003 by Paul Berryman after the departure of Day. Hudson described this as “the true beginning” for the band.[2] After the recording of Addicted Romantic longtime bassist Paul Youdell and guitarist Jonathan Wilson left the band, being replaced by Nicholas Munnings and Stefan Gregory respectively. In 2006, Phil Downing left the band, citing communication problems with other members. After that point the band’s lineup of Hudson, Berryman, Gregory, and Munnings, remained unchanged, until Paul Berryman left in March 2008. He was replaced by Lucio Pedrazzi.[3] Faker’s debut album, Addicted Romantic, was released on 13 June 2005. The album spent one week, at No. 44 and the next week at No. 69, on the ARIA Albums chart.[4] Three singles were released from the album; “The Familiar”, “Hurricane”, and “Love for Sale”. None of these songs made the ARIA Singles chart, but “Hurricane” reached No. 21 on the Triple J Hottest 100, 2005.[5] The video for Hurricane was recorded in the Domed Reading Room of the State Library of Victoria. Addicted Romantic was nominated for the inaugural J Award, won by Wolfmother.[6]
