Nada Surf - The Stars are Indifferent to Astronomy

Released: 27/01/2012 City Slang
The New York trio bring us the sixth album of their career, and after 15 years, they appear as close-knit as ever. Enlisting the help of a few friends - including Guided by Voices' Doug Gillard - this is energetic, guitar-heavy, and filled with youthful enthusiasm for its own sound.

BBC“Perhaps the album should be named Bands Are Indifferent to Change...” Here are more guitar songs that chime, soar and swing, with singer/guitarist Matthew Caws sounding as naïve and blessed as a teenager...

The Line of Best Fit“They are, like most survivors, simply endearing...” They are so uncool, so straight and serious, take the art of songwriting so very very seriously, wear their plaid shirts with such intent that it’s sometimes hard to resist their furrowed brows...

Pitchfork“An album with precious little at stake...” Maybe "recapture" is a more precise word for the urge behind Astronomy's liveliness...
