> the fold – “stargazer ep” review
I’ve got a pocket-full of reasons why I need you by my side”
-Good Goodnight
The Stargazer EP has been in constant rotation on my Zune since it’s August 26 release. Amidst a summer full of Ep’s this one has engaged me more than I expected. The EP’s point of reference starts with the song ” Faster Still” off their last full length ‘Secrets Keep You Sick’. The first three songs on ” Stargazer” being more experimental, electronic and a departure from the power-pop we have come to expect . The last song being the beautiful acoustic song “Little Girl”. The Fold have suceeded in giving us something different and more than a pocketful of reasons to look forward to their next release.

I fully agree, it really is an awesome EP!!
Although I fear they ‘stole’ (or didn’t, who knows) a lyric line from Thrice in the third track, the line (which is simply great) being:
“Every scar is a bridge to someone else’s broken heart.”
It’s from Thrice’s song “For Miles” which appeared on the “Vheissu” album:
“And as long as we live, every scar is a bridge to someone’s broken heart. And there’s no greater love, than that one shed his blood for his friends.”
for those who think rock is mindless music they should see lyrics like that!!!!
