1313. Stars - In Our Bedroom After The War

Bombast is a word I've never used here, but when bands like Stars use it properly it's unstoppable - it makes you sing out loud on a crowded subway, or make a simple trip on a train seem life affirming. Sadly "In Our Bedroom After The War" fails to harness that power that was so elegantly and cleverly captured on their previous releases. It is however still a rather solid effort by such a sweet bunch of canadians.
