'Fight the Sunset' Reviews:
Named one of Drum Media's 'EPs of the Year' -- 26 December 2006.
"It shocks me that the lads are actually from Sydney...Lyrics remind me of songsmiths like Bright Eyes (without the ache) and Alex Llyod (without the commerciality)...I just like how it sounds young, but old, how it floats but soars and how there is an obvious talent in the first effots of this young group". -- Kristy Brown, BRAG Magazine. 'Indie Album of the Week' October 2nd 2006.
"I bet these guys are really nice peoples. They make sparkling, charming tunes so instantly catchy and inviting, that it feels like the sonic equivalent of finding your neighbours have an outdoor spa and a self-replenishing liquor cabinet with an open-door policy. There are hints of the Beatles, softer Something For Kate and even the early offerings of Motor Ace before they sounded like a post-lobotomy Oasis. Unlike a lot of recent indie rockery, every track here has its own refreshing personality and range of emotion. Matched with production as clever as the songwriting, 'Fight the Sunset' is all class." -- Lacklan Marks, Drum Media. 17 October 2006.
"This young Sydney four-piece's second EP has the sort of slightly melancholic guitar pop that is custom-made for savvy TV-soundtracks. Their music has been played on TV shows Love My Way and The Alice. The EP strives to soar and comes close enough on Devoted Youth and Pale Signs, which has scored airplay on Nova...there is promise here". -- Kelsey Munro, Sydney Morning Hearld. December 1st 2006
"At last Sydney has produced an indie band capable of belting out emotional anthems in the vein of Snow Patrol and Coldplay...Its all here". -- Joanna Davis, The Manly Daily. 9 November 2006.
"The Stars are like an 'O.C' band on speed. They take all the best parts of indie/pop rock and throw it into a nu-millenium blender, coming out with something vasty original, yet entirely lyrics based...If you like Death Cab for Cutie, The Thrills and (especially) The Shins, here is your Australian equivalent. Bring it." -- Jonno Seidler, whothehell.net. 26 Novmeber 2006.
"I could describe the atmosphere of this EP in one word - shimmering...it captures your imagination, grabs your attention and gives you wonderful little surprises along the way. I immediately thought of Smashing Pumpkins without the pompousness". -- Corey Stewart, The Bizzo. 30th October 2006
