CERTAIN STARS
"If ’90s slacker rock ever had a home in Milwaukee, Certain Stars are its keepers. The group’s dirty pop riffs come off with a charged nonchalance, and are accompanied by catchy lyrics, thrumming bass, a tight drum kit, and the occasional handclap. Those with severe cases of Pavement nostalgia should find singles like “Highschoolalloveragain” welcome additions to their iPod repertoires. The band has just come out of the studio with a new 7-inch featuring “The Great Destroyer,” as well as a cover of The Magnetic Fields’ “Too Drunk To Dream.” If this is a sneak peek of what’s in store for Certain Stars’ next full-length, the group is headed in the right direction."

1956
"Milwaukee’s 1956 gets better with age. After a couple of early releases steeped in crushingly heavy alt-rock riffs and Helmet-inspired screeds, the alt-rock trio matured in satisfying directions on their 2007 record, Saboteur, which they spent years crafting. Swapping some of their hard-rock swagger for bleary-eyed sighs, the disc almost strikes the same melancholic tone as The National’s Boxer—another album by a band that mellowed with age to great effect—while still playing to the band’s penchant for searing, propulsive guitar riffs."
