Since forming in 2008, Starring has honed the art of sublimely stoned textures that unite progressive symphonic euphoria with machine-like repetitions and subversively sweet lullabies. Unhinged, introspective, but also weirdly unpredictable, the music arrives like a nutty and cosmic musical ice cream sundae served by a smiling, psychedelic krautrocker. Now joining the roster of Brooklyn's Northern Spy, Starring releases ABCDEFG-HIJKLMNOP-QRSTUV-WXYZ: a creative bouquet that integrates fastidious studio experimentation with elements of the band s hot-blooded and earsplitting performances in the musty corners of Brooklyn s DIY rock scene.
