There's a creepy goth veneer crawling underneath Stills lead singer Tim Fletcher's vocals as he sings lines of timeless ennui such as "I'm just so bored of wasting my time/love and death are always on my mind," an undercurrent of dread not unlike Robert Smith or Morrissey coming down from a particularly potent sadness bender. Even happy-sounding titles like LOGIC WILL BREAK YOUR HEART's opening single "Still in Love Song," are portraits in lurking danger, and about-to-boil-over lust and anger. And it works; as overlapping guitars somewhere between power pop and new wave swirl around the intricate, neurotically-Nietzsche-ian lyrics, a rapture develops, as does a downpour of pitch-perfect indie pop. |

- 4 stars out of 5 - "...[LOGIC...] is a stunner, a rush of shoegazer guitars and suave loverboy angst. They expand on the Eighties guitar-synth chemistry of bands such as the Cure or the Comsat Angels for a sound that could pass for [a] lost New Order album..."
