Wow, not bad. This being my first listen to Tinstar, I'm quite impressed. With glimpses of U2 and INXS crossed with signature electro fuzzed guitars, I think these guys offer something very sincere to Modern Rock Music. I could be wrong, of course. I picked this disc up on a recommendation of a friend and I would say it's worth every penny. The songs are well crafted and the vocals are just fresh enough to keep me interested. "Sunshine" is a bit of a dancey number, almost with a slight New Madonna styled beat and groove to it with "Pacify" being a downtempo, stoner classic. If I had to pick a solid single off this disc it would have to be "Treacle" which would feel right at home on the dancefloor and would be ripe for a Fila Brazlia or King Tweak remix. So much of what I hear just seems bland, but Tinstar definitely stand out. If you're looking for a good solid disc to add to your collection, pick this up.
