Stellastarr* - No Weather

Mark says I like Fashion Rock. Fine. Whatever. Nobody wants to be thought of as a bandwagon rider, but there's buzz for a reason right? Just like a stereotype is based partially in truth, so is hype. When I bought Stellastarr's self-titled debut I really didn't want to like it as much as I do, but then I relized that if I refused to jump on the hipster train because I would be accused of jumping on the hipster train, then the terrorists have won.

So for those of you who have only heard Jenny or Somewhere Across Forever and have pegged Stellastarr* as just another new waver knock-off, you're missing out on a lot of other great songs on their album, like this one. They're playing Summerstage in Central Park at the end of the month, but of course, if you're in NYC you already knew that.
