"This is not for me, your perfume Struggles perfectly."

"North Star" have delivered with their Pollyanna-disk a prime example of profound indie / emo-rock. Named after a children's book this record reflects everything back to what we know to Indie so appreciate - these guys know exactly what they do.

For Members Only 10 / 10- Ingenious opener which gives an idea of ​​the potenital this disc. Polyphonic guitar parts, great reef, ingenious Bridge. Love the "You move me like I've got new feet" part.

Pollyanna 10/10 - After "For Members Only" go one better and took me with its refrain "You look so lovey, running through my fingers, running through my fingers" immediately caught - my first catchy tune of this album right the first time hear. Love the transition from quiet "I'm not letting go of it" to the Bridge with "She's got a leash did grips my teeth did Cleans The Air I Breathe" and from there the perfect chorus - absolutely awesome.

American Dream 10/10 - This song takes a little getting used and can be the first time listening to "Pollyanna" slow somewhat, but when one has seen through his concept, he is "Pollyanna" in fact in every way. Especially since his chorus "So dance to some broken chords with broken knees through Open Doors" is incredibly strong - he's just not as easy to access as "Polyanna". Love the use of guitars with "So Mr. Destiny - you forgot about me."

"The pornographer's Daughter" 12/10 - My absolute favorite song of this plate and one of the best indie rock pieces ever. Took me at the first time not bowled, unfolds after several passages but incredibly a lot of potential and has now developed into one of my favorite ever songs - insanely strong. In addition to the exaggerated good chorus with "This is not for me, your perfume Struggles perfectly, it wrapes around and screams at me", which has an extremely high level of both the melody and lyrically, I love the "And I ' ll take the Fifth and you can just sit and I'll watch from a distance while you open it - This is how I want to keep her..in pieces..she's a keeper "and the bridge with" And I'll be holding My Breath with the best .. my breath with the best intentions ", and then open out into the brilliant chorus.

Like AM Radio 7/10 - really needed a long time to convince, but it fits into the overall concept of the album, creates atmosphere, does not break out of the atmosphere and the plate like in repeated listening more and more. After four brilliant predecessor pieces he takes but sharply.

Accident Underwater 6/10 - Can be based on "Like AM Radio", is solid, but not a ripper like the first four. Has its own atmosphere and here fit music and lyrics together zimlich perfect - one of the weakest songs on the record. To skip nevertheless good.

Two Zero Two 9/10 - Acoustic and here the guys have done everything right: Soulful, great text, melody and horny for the center of the disk as a calming influence. If the album exactly in the right place and is written with a high level - "Are you okay, baby"

To My Better Angel 9/10 - Tear immediately from the "Two Zero Two" atmosphere and slams pure. Can finally be connected to the first three pieces again, has with his "And operator I Can not Hold Much Longer" a damn strong Bridge and ends with "If anybody talk of me, tell them I am never coming home again, just tell them I am gone "in a great chorus - again at its old strength these guys. Love the "Without thesis Scars That are Completely invisible" part followed by guitar riff.

Between Horns and Halos 12/10 - is the only song on this record, the "The pornographer's Daughter" that can hold a candle. Incredibly horny verses ingenious Bridge and a refrain that you will never get out of your ear - "She will sleep here in between the cracks, just a flower with a broken back," etc. - a small masterpiece of indie rock songs , Thanks for Northstar.

Digital Me - 8/10 sounds the first time quite monotonous, and he is also - provides first nothing great running, passing and you have not the urge to hear the same again - If the chorus is heard for the third time, then takes He caught a but. Surely not the strongest song on the album, but good enough to not skip it. But that he owes only its chorus.

Rocket City 8/10 - Great end of this plate, which acts as a summary of everything that has belonged and with "It will not be alright, so I'll take off tonight and risk a fall and say goodbye" one of the best lyric may include extracts of this plate. Leaves a with a satisfied feeling back, the chorus is just the right blend of feeling and rock, of good humor and melancholy.

All in all, "Pollyanna" God knows no easily accessible plate. You have to get involved in it, you have to indie rock like and you have to appreciate it - what you do automatically, if you can understand their harmony. For me, this album is one of the best that I have and I'm filthy glad I've ordered it blind despite concerns - especially the fact that the songs all have an enormously high level that here six strong songs on it, the I love all of them and that Northstar know exactly how to build songs - verse, bridge, chorus - which engage in their songs simply outstanding one another. From this pane you will have very long what. Accessing.
