Shooting Star EP on CD

2010 CD EP from the Brazilian popsters. The title track is an infectious Pop hit with jangling guitars, an especially strong melody and nice harmonies. It's a catchy burst of summertime any time of the year. 'Are You Scared to Get Happy?' proves the band has more than a few Shoegaze records in their record collection, layering in fuzzy Teenage Fanclub-esque guitar parts and building to a multilayered orchestral ending with strings and more harmonies. 'Before I Found You' is shimmering Pop at it's best with more jangling guitar goodness, perfect melodies, handclaps, and tambourines, while 'Unknown Half' mixes multiple guitars with keyboards and other nice instrumentation to conclude the EP.
