| | Harmonies For The Haunted CD Stellastarr Discography of CDs
 (3 Customer Reviews)
New York's Stellastarr built on the '80s-influenced sound of their debut on this 2005 follow-up, which finds the band indebted as deeply as ever to the Cure, U2, and the Pixies. Yet HARMONIES FOR THE HAUNTED boasts a newfound confidence, with sharp songwriting and infectious melodies supported by impassioned performances (especially those by lead singer/guitarist Shawn Christensen). The fun, familiar combination of elements helps puts this retro-tinged indie rock outfit on the contemporary map.
stellastarr*: Shawn Christensen (vocals, guitar, acoustic guitar); Michael Jurin (vocals, guitar, baritone guitar, sampler); Amanda Tannen (vocals, bass instrument); Arthur Kremer (piano, keyboards, drums, percussion).
Award WinnerRolling Stone (No. 982, p.110) - 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...[T]hey fully deliver [greatness] on their second album...Stellastarr sound playful but passionate, flashing their Eighties go-feet beats...alongside moody, Cure-style ballads...."
Magnet (pp.108-110) - "[With] gritty storytelling....Weaving plots of misplaced identity, familial abandonment and costly change."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.96) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[P]acked with indie bluster, but underneath the buzzing guitars lurks a mood of heartbreak....A charged return."

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No  warning - wants to install software to listen to music
I returned this CD after putting it in my PC to listen to it, and it started to install software, first asking me to agree to some kind of legal agreement. I thought I was buying music, not software, so I returned it. Sorry, I do not know if the music was any good.

On this immensely appealing debut, SILENT ALARM, the London-based quartet Bloc Party fulfills the promise of their barnstorming 2004 singles "Banquet" and "She's Hearing Voices." Led by magnetic frontman Kele Okereke, the band extracts the most fascinating aspects of the previous 25 years of British indie rock and fuses them into a new entity--complete with smarts and heart--never delving into retro-kitsch or slavish imitation.
Okerere's urgent yelp most often recalls a fired-up incarnation of the Cure's Robert ...
