"I have only recently started listening to the Clarks and must say that I have been fully impressed by Fast Moving Cars - their latest album. It simply gets better with each listening. Their rare ability to masterfully combine intriguing lyrics with interesting and diverse instrumentation is what sets The Clarks apart from most of the mediocrity that is played on radio today. Get this album and anything else put out by The Clarks. I guarantee that you won't be disappointed. And catch them live on tour - they really put on a great rock and roll show."

New Stuff *IS* the Best Stuff

"I am reading the other reviews about Fast Moving Cars and am almost apalled. If you are a true clarks fan, their music simply cannot sound bad in any form. In fact, it shows how great of musicians they truly are in your being upset, or dismayed over the new sound. Let it Go and Another Happy Ending started the universal "buzz", and now Fast Moving Cars is what has brought them to the mainstream, hence their first appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman 8/31/04. Keep in mind, Pittsburgh's clarks are the only artist to beat Velvet Revolver's selling stats on their first release. (Pittsburgh was the only city to have a band other than Velvet Revolver be #1 in CD sales, and the Clarks just happened to be the band.) All of this speaks for itself, BUY THE CD, and hear the very best of the Clarks yet! If you still are not amazed and pleased, it is simply a problem with your inability to deal with change."

Still haven't peaked

"When you are a big fan of a group, in the back of your mind you know your group will peak and then start the downward spiral. I'm here to tell you The Clarks are still rising. I actually had to play this CD a couple of times before I was singing and dancing - but it didn't take long. Though all the tracks are great, Shimmy Low, Happy and Fast Moving Cars stand out. Great work in the bands evolution. I hope the rest of the world hears them soon."
