The Songcast says "This is a great rock CD with good songs, period." Alooga Media radio has put the CD in serious rotation in Germany, as they did with the band's first release
Forwarding the melodic sound and powerpop of bands such as Superchunk and Big Star, a Certain Stars hook can take up space in your head for days. The band believes in writing good songs and playing them well. That conviction landed songs from their first CD (2004) "Times Like These Call for Tambourines" on VirginDigital's "So Indie It Hurts" webcasts, alongside industry favorites like Pavement and Liz Phair.
Previously, as the band "Cudahy" they released the quirky pop gem "Millenia EP" in 1998. In 2003 the band became Certain Stars and enlisted Milwaukee band veterans Chris Voss (formerly First Third) and Greg Hein (formerly Powerwagon). All members take on songwriting duties that uniquely add to the whole.
In November 2006 Certain Stars recorded five new songs at Coney Island Studios in Madison, Wisconsin. Recording direct to 1" Analog tape, engineer Wendy Schneider got the band closer to their explosive live sound than ever before. The strength of songs and driving rock sound should find the "Wired for Sound" EP garnering more airplay and favorable notice.
A Certain Stars live show reveals a seasoned band playing with conviction, heart and energy.
