notes
Pale Stars hail from Baltimore, the land of pleasant living. Their unique blend of power pop and Americana - with irrepressibly catchy pop hooks and out-of-this-world guitar sounds - is quickly gaining the attention of radio and press.
"The Pale Stars features Brandt Huseman, one of the founders of The Greenbery Woods and Splitsville member. While the Woods are long gone and Splitsville is busy putting the finishing touches on their next album due in 2006, Brandt Huseman here has joined up with some incredibly talented musicians in Baltimore for unleash The Pale Stars on us all. And Thank The Heavens For That! The 11 perfectly timed, sublimely rhapsodic songs here, evoke warm memories of The Greenberry Woods and,in fact,Huseman says that what he was going for. Evocations and familiar echoes of Squeeze, a more moody-ish Matthew Sweet and Gin Blossom-ish styled choruses and hooks and a bunch of songs that sound like they belong on radio through-out the Western world. Huseman is in confident artistic voice here, interlacing long,launguid memorable, classic power pop melodies, angelic harmonies and plenty of flavorful guitar licks." - Bruce Brodeen, Not Lame
"The Pale Stars is definitely not a pale picture and definitely not a snack, as this CD is well rounded melodious pop rock with hints of country rock too good for that.
...This is most noticable in the quality songs Heavy Changes, Everything's Wrong, Mercy, Long Way Down and the other seven songs are simply well planned radio friendly rock songs with beautiful melodies and guitar work.
With The Pale Stars Brandt Huseman made the long expected Greenberry Woods third record. Beautiful." - www.altcountry.nl (Translated from Dutch)
