New reviews for 'Too Much Talk' | 26.12.2006
Manchester Music says:
The digital single from COSTAR - "Too Much Talk" (Popfiction) provides a weird combination of searching newWave pop and a strange compelling sensation that there's a little bit of The Strokes and (early) U2 in there somewhere - It's not obvious, but it's maybe just because the melodies seem to stack up so well. In essence it's an authentic, searching, rough edged jangling indie joy with an ace ending which over the course of the three tracks falls into a wonderful post c86 rumble of harmonious distortions. Could be big! MMMM

Indigo Flow says:
"T
he latest in a string of single releases from Costar brings us ever closer to the release of their debut album, and if this single is anything to go by, that is a snippet of information you really need to know. Their distinctive brand of indie pop is a joy to listen to, both catchy and cool."

Great reviews for the new single | 8.12.2006
Subba-cultcha.com is writing:
"Americana driven pop rock never sounded as sweet as this - taking the nervy energ
y of the killers, the soul searching melodies of Matthew Sweet and giving it a Wilco make-over, gorgeous, wonderful, buy this now!"
