Stars: 'In Our Bedroom After The War'

'Stars are rewriting the textbook on romance with effortless glee'

Their sweet, lovelorn glide is what sets Stars apart from their Canadian peers on this, their fourth album. Emotions here run from gentle melancholy through to ebbing sorrow, but there’s still time for euphoria too. With ‘In Our Bedroom…’ Stars are rewriting the textbook on romance with effortless glee.

Stars' debut gently takes influence from the shoegazing electronica of Radio Dept., and flows through with songs of heartache and sorrow, but manages to be surprisingly uplifting. The beauty of this is in a league of its own. It provides for easy listening, but it's not dumb.
