The Stills: Logic Will Break Your Heart

"With pretty synth lines; chiming, chugging guitar riffs; the right influences for a rock band, circa 2003 (the Smiths, Echo and the Bunnymen, the Cure , New Order, Radiohead, U2, Chameleons) and another sexy singer with a melodramatic, soaring tenor, this well-hyped Montreal band could very easily be another lame Interpol cover band. But the Stills are far more than the sum of their influences; theyve actually recorded one of the best debuts of 2003. The first clue that this band is for real lies in their songcraft--hear the soaring "Lola Stars and Stripes" once and you want to hear it again. Hear it again, and its stuck in your head all day. Check out the words ("We all need to feel secure, were so middle class/ But Im still waiting for next weeks chemical blast") and you realize Logic deals with topical issues, such as the aftermath of 9/11, in a way thats neither cheesy nor histrionic. Its definitely ironic in parts--theyve stolen the title for their moody "Lets Roll" from Neil Youngs ill-fated tune of the same name, for instance. But this is still soaring, meaningful pop music."
