Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: What! You too? I thought I was the only one.

Stars

Just got Set Yourself On Fire by Stars, a group from Montreal. In fact, I am listening to it at this very moment. Very good stuff. I can’t even tell you how much I love bands that have more than one lead singer. They sound like if you took The Arcade Fire, Belle & Sebastian and all their instruments and mixing boards and threw them into a special blender designed not to grind up its contents, but instead to combine mellifluously each band’s musical strengths. Good lyrics too. I forgot to say that the blender does that as well.

This blog is based on a true story.
