(Pop, Power Pop) Cheap Star - Songs for the Farrelly Brothers - 2016, MP3, 320 kbps

Power Pop trio from France / Switzerland influenced by Nada Surf, the Lemonheads, The Posies and Teenage Fanclub.
This French band takes its name from two of the long-time titans in our genre but sounds less like either of them and more like Teenage Fanclub and The Posies, which isn't a bad thing at all. Of course, sounding like The Posies isn't a shock here as half of the disc was produced by Ken Stringfellow and the other half by Jon Auer, in what could be considered the production equivalent of their Private Sides EP. Of course it's one thing to sound like a band and another to sound like a band and have great songs of your own. Thankfully, Cheap Star falls into the latter category with gems such as "For Saving Grace", "Sugar & Candy", "Shell" and the all-too-brief "Free to Believe". Absolute Powerpop (30 Mars 2009)
