　　This British power pop band has softened up its sound but I like them as much as on their first three records. Actually, the punchiest number is the harder-edged, faster-paced, Japan-only bonus track 'Slow Down'.
　　Other than that, they play it soft without making it gooey, as on the smooth, shimmering and radio-friendly 'Just Driving', with its nice harmony vocals.
　　There are also a couple of Jellyfish-like tracks on this magnificent record ('Swings & Roundabouts' and 'Missed the Boat') with outstanding pop songs like 'Stereotypes' and 'Sleep Above the Covers', the latter being a devastatingly beautiful and fragile ditty.
　　All in all, it seems to me that Farrah's music has evolved in pretty much the same way as Silver Sun's sound did a decade ago. Besides, both British bands put out records in Japan only where their fan base is probably more consistent.

　　Farrah are a UK power pop quartet formed in the north east of England in 1999. After releasing their debut single "Terry" on the indie Noisebox label in the UK they were signed to The Police manager Miles Copland's Ark21 label for the release of their debut album Moustache. The album was released in the UK, USA, Europe and Japan and saw the band tour the world extensively to support it. Alas, the albums commercial failure bankrupted Ark21 and in 2003 their 2nd album was released on various independent labels throughout the world.
　　Whilst developing a harder rock sound Me Too incorporated more diverse elements into their sound whilst still essentially remaining true to the 3-minute harmony-laden melody-focussed power pop format the band became known for.
　　Although Farrah have built up a solid fan base over the years they have never crossed into the mainstream consciousness and remain largely unknown outside indie / power pop circles. The band are often cited alongside bands such as Fountains Of Wayne and Weezer as keepers of the contemporary power pop flame.

在Got the Best of Me这样的女声音质让人很容易去迷茫他们这张专辑是小清新派，在换支后我们又听到了完全不同的元素。这又是他们融合了多样化的专辑，抒情还是主打的路线，当然还合他们他们一的惯延续了在首张专辑当中的Miles Copeland's Ark21 的标签。（Miles Copeland's A... (展开)
