It is taking longer than expected to fetch the next song to play.
The music should be playing soon.

While attending Brooklyn's Pratt Institute of the Arts in the late '90s, vocalist/guitarist Shawn Christensen, bassist Amanda Tannen, and drummer Arthur Kremer befriended one another for what would eventually become a musical journey. The threesome had barely grasped the beauty of their respective instruments, so forming the band Ghistor was an interesting move. It was a work in progress and a bond in the making, however short-lived. Christensen, Tannen, and Kremer eventually graduated and tried the corporate thing for a while. They reconnected in spring 2000 with former Charlotte's Funeral guitarist and Philly native Michael Jurin to form the indie rock outfit stellastarr*. A deal with Tiswas followed by 2002 and their EP Somewhere Across Forever appeared the next spring. After much acclaim from the media for the eponymously titled debut full-length, the group returned in 2005 with the follow-up effort Harmonies for the Haunted. In 2009 stellastarr* released Civilized on their own Bloated Wife Records. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, Rovi
There are few things that continuously break my heart like the fact that stellastarr* is on indefinite hiatus. Don't get me wrong, I love Dear Comrade (Arthur Kremer's new band) and I'm getting into Camera2 (featuring Michael Jurin), but I can only hope that stellastarr* will eventually have some sort of reunion.
Ah yes, been almost 2 months since that last entry I posted and I have thouroughly fallen enfatuated with their sound and while it does bring to mind the sound of atleast a handful of other (good) artists they are ultimatly and actually Quite unique and I can't wait till they release their next album which will hopefully happen soon!
Zach B. states foolish comments and is obviously a fool himself. This band and the singer are Quite good and deserve much higher praise! It's so nice to live life as somthing more than a stupid fool!
They sound like all the other twangy, wanna-be 80s throwback bands. You listen to a Pandora station with Japan, Chameleons, Kissing the Pink, Psych Furs, etc. and these hacks come on and you hear the difference within seconds. No good.

These guys are phenomenal in concert. Every song ends in chaos but it's great!
I love the lead singer's voice. Their music style is really interesting. 'Sweet Troubled Soul' is awesome!!! Great guitars, etc., and the lyrics are hysterical. "And when you're naked in the dark I want to see your face reflected in my bedroom stereo." Shades of 'Paradise By The Dashboard Light'!! LOL!
