PaulLMar 12, 2005The opening tracks sound promising but the rest of the album is completely forgettable. I have this CD in my car so I listen to it nearly everyday, but for the life of me I can't recall a single track.

ChrisMay 25, 2004If they cut-out a couple of songs, it would be a perfect album. Super catchy pop.

JonoMFeb 27, 2004A beautiful record. It's the album that I hoped Interpol would make, but I guess The Stills beat them to it.

margaretdDec 31, 2003After the inital couple of listenings, "Logic..." began to stay parked in the changer. Definitely not great, but listenable. I'd love to see a lyric sheet.

stefanmDec 2, 2003After listening to this album at least a dozen times, I still can't get enough. I'd love to see them in concert in a small venue.

MusicMavenNov 20, 200380's post-punk has been a big influence on many fine bands recently (Interpol, British Sea Power, etc.). Add the Stills to that list. Like their successful contemporaries, they merge their influences into a bracing and powerful whole. They are a little bit more pop (I hear echoes of Duran Duran in "Still In Love Song"), but without any hint of pandering. Highly recommended.

TheFishNov 3, 2003Yep, go buy it... In some ways The Stills are the band that The Doves always threatened to be but could never really deliver on. I hear a lot of early U2 in here too. Big Joyful Mopey Happy Sound that will have everyone dancing at a party.

The Stills' excellent debut album, Logic Will Break Your Heart, is a stunner, a rush of shoegazer guitars and suave lover-boy angst.
-
Entertainment WeeklyThe Stills succeed at distilling their influences into an inviting update. [24 Oct 2003, p.105]
-
Q MagazineThere's plenty of regret and "emotional disgust," but it's applied with piercing guitar lines that resemble a soppier Interpol. [Mar 2004, p.112]
