樂隊介紹
1987年，Clare Wadd和Matt Haynes在英國布里斯托（Bristol ）的一間地下室創建了SarahRecords。1995年8月，Sarah發行了它第一百張也是最後一張專輯Sarah 100後宣布關閉。Sarah 100不能算是Sarah系列唱片中最出色的一張，但它集合了幾乎所有Sarah旗下的知名樂隊，既是Sarah音樂品味的精粹，亦可見證90'獨立音樂之唯美傳奇。
關於Sarah公司在音樂本身之外的運作理念，說起來令人費解，當然它也許是某些社會學批評家感興趣的話題，Sarah認為它的唱片發行到一百張之時，希望會有一場全球性的社會主義革命，而實際上，當Sarah 100真的出現時，除了資本主義全球一體化愈加變本加厲之外，地球依舊在我們心靈之外悲傷旋轉，這個世界上什麼激動人心的事情也沒發生。
Sarah是個跛著腿奮力向左傾斜的堂吉科德，這往往是人們津津樂道的熱點，而它音樂本身的美學姿態才是真正的妙不可言。Sarah在音樂上的成就非常簡單明了，即是它從87年到95年發行的100張低成本高水準的獨立流行樂唱片，包括專輯，單曲，EP和合輯。它很好的給別的唱片公司上了一課：即使不燒錢也能做出不是垃圾的流行樂。而且Sarah在唱片平面設計上更有獨到美感，寧靜唯美之勢直逼另類聖殿4.A.D的專業美工小組。
幸運的是，Sarah公司合伙人之一的Matt Haynes後來在倫敦創建另一獨立廠牌Shinkansen，Shinkansen 繼承了Sarah失落的音樂世界。眾多Sarah的精華樂隊,藝人也轉入Shinkansen旗下，包括Trembling Blue Stars, Harvey Williams,Blueboy, Fosca，The Field Mice等等。
解散聲明
英文原版
A day for destroying things... ...because when you were nineteen
Didn't YOU ever want to create something beautful and pure
Just so one day you could set it on fire
And then watch the city light up as it burned?
Didn't you want to do that every day of life?
Nothing should be forever.
Bands should do one single and then split up,fanzines finish after one flawless issue, lovers leave in the rain at 5am and never be seen again -Habit and fear of change are the worst reasons for ever doing ANYTHNG. Stopping a record label after 100 perfect releases is the most gorgeous pop art-statement ever and says more about pop-music than any two-part digipak limited edition coloured vinyl 7'' grimly authentic lo-fi ten-track EP(or any other marketing gimmick) ever will. Sarah Records is owned by no-one but us, so it's OURS to create and destroy how we want and we don't do encores. We want to burn in bright colours and go pop, to be giddy, impulsive and silly, to kiss people in new places -EXQUISITELY- and DARE to tear things apart.

中文翻譯
一段時光的終結 ... 一切只因你曾在19歲...
想創造一些完美而純粹的東西？
儘管有一天你會將他們付之一炬。
注視著被它點亮的城市燈火漸起。
然後讓生命的每一天都凝結如此回憶。
本來就沒什麼海枯石爛的事情。
樂隊做完一首歌就解散，你聽到一首完美曲子，然後滿意離開，你的戀人轉身走進凌晨5點的雨中，今生今世永不相逢……習慣和拒絕改變，才永遠是你做任何事情的最大障礙。所以要在100張精美的唱片完成後終結這個唱片廠牌，它們刻畫了流行音樂最絢爛的痕跡，不止在於那些彩色的vinyl 7寸唱片，低保真的十軌EP，或者任何的行銷噱頭。Sarah只屬於我們自己，它是我們想要創造出和毀滅掉的東西。我們永不舊話重提。我們想在絢爛的色彩里燃燒，衝動，眩暈，痴狂；我們在嶄新的地方親吻人群，精緻，敏感；我們敢於結束一切。
