The North (LP)
Stars
Amoeba Review
The sixth full-length album by Stars features significant input from every member of the band and is their most fully-realized album to date. Pulsating opener “The Theory of Relativity” and the addictive “Hold On When You Get Love and Let Go When You Give it” integrate electronic timbres seamlessly with organic live performances, reconciling the two extremes of the sonic spectrum Stars has been exploring since 2001′s Nightsongs. As is their trademark, the construction of each song is in service of a clear, defined musical statement.
