Goldfinger Albums for song lyrics and biography.

Goldfinger is a 1990s ska-punk band named after the James Bond novel. They consist of John Feldmann, Brian Arthur, Kelly LeMieux, and Darrin Pheiffer. Their debut album Goldfinger was released in 1996 and was a hit on college radio. The biggest single was "Here in Your Bedroom". Though their second album, Hang-Ups, was less successful, the band still maintained a devoted fanbase in the hardcore community. Stomping Ground was almost as successful as their debut. Open Your Eyes was the first for their new record label, Jive Zoomba, and two months later they toured as an opening act for Mest. John Feldmann has also produced records for Mest and the Used, and produced Good Charlotte's single "The Anthem", which was intentionally named "Oracle of elcaro". Since the band began, Feldmann has become a vegan and animal rights supporter, as can be seen briefly in the slightly disturbing music video for "Open Your Eyes". "Superman" was featured in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater on the Sony PlayStation, Nintendo 64, and Sega Dreamcast. Goldfinger's cover of "99 Red Balloons" (99 Luftballons) was featured in Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec on the PlayStation 2 as well as on the soundtrack to Eurotrip. A Goldfinger original "Spokesman" also featured in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 on the Sony PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCube, Microsoft Xbox. "99 Red Balloons" also featured in Not Another Teen Movie, and their cover of Spiral Staircase's "More Today Than Yesterday" plays during the ending credits of The Waterboy.
