Jan 25, 2012Like the title suggests, Stars burns bright and fast.
-
Jan 17, 201210 songs, no filler, that won't necessarily knock you out of your seat, but rather leave you wanting to lean back and stay a while.

Entertainment WeeklyJan 20, 2012[It has] ringing guitar hooks and winsome nostalgia. [27 Jan 2012, p.71]

Jan 20, 2012The component parts of this record prove that indie rock may be 'dying' commercially but still sounds alive and kicking.

Feb 22, 2012It is far too adult oriented rock and middle of the road to be anything but the sound of a band coasting, rather than making waves.
