REVIEWS FOR "The Noyelle Beat":
"A riot of hormones, cut-to-the-chase lyrics, bolshie girl-boy vocals and jingle-jangle propusion...The best and most loveable aspects of indie guitar music."
The Sunday Times
"An album that is as close to perfection as you could hope for."
Artrocker
"Is it one of the best albums I’ve heard so far this year? Hell yeah."
The Line Of Best Fit
"If you're a fan of The Long Blondes or Sky Larkin you'll bloody Love them!"
High Voltage
"As near to total perfection as you can get. Buy this album. You won't regret it."
The Music Critic
"Despite wearing its musical DNA on its sleeve, the Noyelle Beat is a collection of fabulous tunes that deserve to stand on their own for a new audience."
Sounds XP
"Standard Fare crank out their gritty Britpop with the conviction of a group of kids convinced they're the first ones ever harboring such intense emotions. And that's the kind of passion needed to distinguish a record like this from the pack."
Stomp And Stammer

INDIETRACKS! - Very exciting!


LATITUDE! - Also very exciting!

------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------


Originating from the icey cold loft of a big old house in a small town and then relocating to a small cottage out in the unknown hills of the countryside, Standard Fare have now discovered the luxuries of rehearsal rooms and with that discovery, a whole different world outside of the Buxton bubble!
So with the bright lights pulling them towards the 'big big city', well that and all moving in different directions, the band are now based in Sheffield (where the one way systems +permanent road works confuse the hell out of their little country minds!).
