AllMusic[1]

Fake is the second and final album by British alternative rock band Adorable, released in 1994.[2] The sound of the album was influenced by American indie rock, a shift from the Shoegaze and Bunnymen influence of the band's debut.[3] The album sold poorly, and Adorable were dropped from their label.[4]

Reception

[edit]

Trouser Press wrote that Fake "meets the sophomore challenge with surprising grace and ease. A more coherent, ambitious album that flows far better than its predecessor, it possesses twice the bite, more interesting guitar passages and an underlying obstinacy that fuels the immaculately built tunes."[2]
