Wooden Stars - People Are Different
Reviewed by jonathan
"We are little orphans," begins the first track on Wooden Stars' album People Are Different. In many ways they're correct, musically, in that they're by themselves, playing an interesting amalgam of jazz, post-punk, Sebadoh-ish indie rock, which makes much of it feel dated, a part of the '90s. I can imagine the gifted kids in A.P. English listening to the Ottowa-based band, all the while sneering at the masses who listen to that Top 40 crap. [www.thewoodenstars.com]
