The full-length debut by Figures on a Beach features the glorius "No Stars," a swelling, romantic tune with a memorable melody and gossamer production. [Wounded Bird's 2008 reissue of the album adds an extra track ("Eternal Repetition") and three mixes of "No Stars."] ~ Stewart Mason, All Music Guide
Alright, I hate most music recorded in the last 10 years, but I'm always willing to give it a chance. So when this song came on and I found it sufficiently interesting to investigate I thought, "Hey, never heard of these guys. Maybe I finally found a 'new' band that's worth a damn". I wasn't too terribly surprised to find that, alas, that was not the case. Good stuff - I'll definitely be looking for more.
