Stars - In Our Bedroom After The War

For Canadian romantics Stars, love is war. And their modern love is strikingly similar to the world's modern war: confusion and anxiety topped with a sense of semi-staged dread.

On their 4th studio album In Our Bedroom After the War, presentation is great, clean production, fine instrumentation, and careful arrangements but its undercurrent is pure self-doubt and longing. So while the quintet pushes it's passion-based politics to the fore and includes the phrase "after the war" in the title of its fourth album, the emphasis is still "in our bedroom." Assuming you can dodge enough bullets to make it there.

Heavyweight double vinyl produced by Arts & Crafts Records in 2007. Gatefold sleeve.
