ri-ra
"It's hard to believe this is a debut. It sounds fresh, new and invigorating." "It's like you've been hearing the songs all your life. They deal in the perfect three-minute pop market-place." "In Farrah I can hear snippets of The Beatles, Beach Boys, Crowded House, Teenage Fanclub and all manner of happy-go-lucky '60s pop groups. The album is intelligent, witty, charming, disarming"....

Excess all areas
Farrah were seen behaving terribly at the recent Rainbow Quartz night at the Barfly Club Camden. After watching an excellent set from the US's Myracle Brah, the band talked endless rubbish and Mike (who had been guzzling Stella) stormed off and was later found looking through bins outside Camden's Kebab shops. Mike later released this statement "Look, it tasted fine - anyway, I was hungry."
