This is what you would call a masterpiece; a way to remove all remaining doubt in your mind of the pure pop genius of Jason Martin's song-crafting. With their seventh CD release to date, Jason and Co. once again deliver the goods without disappointment. Soft, dreamy vocals, 70's style drums and an overall relaxing, atmospheric vibe all have their place here, taking Starflyer's signature sound to the next level. The only fans that will be disappointed are those who are still lamenting the loss of the massive distortion and endless feedback characterizing Starflyer's earlier releases. Instead of drowning a mediocre song in overwhelming guitars layered on top of each other, Jason allows the much stronger dynamics of his new songs to stand on their own on this one. The results are nothing less than amazing. While sounding much more stripped down, there are still some subtle hints of electronic instrumentation. But, before all of you gung-ho guitar-only enthusiasts write Starflyer off as another wayward rock band caught in the tide of the new electronica, listen for yourself and try appreciating the songs for the beautiful works of art that they are. The wispy electronics and programmed drum loops will pull you helplessly into the music before you realize what's hit you. Once you're sucked in, your only hope will be to bask in the melodies that envelope you. After you're nice and relaxed from all nine songs the CD has to offer, sit back and wait for the hidden track at the end to finish off the job and put you in a complete state of euphoria. The most relaxing instrumental piece you'll ever hear will fill the room like a sweet perfume as the smooth saxophone sounds pour over the guitar and piano. Amazing. With this latest album, Starflyer 59 have quite possibly surpassed all of their previous material while adding an irreplaceable gem to their treasure chest of releases.
