Stars - "The Comeback"

Stars - "The Comeback": "Before Stars got semi-famous for their baroque pop stylings, they were a synth-rock band of the heighest rank, followers of the best New Order had to offer. They had crisp beats and clever bitterness to share, perfectly evidenced here. This song also includes one of my favorite lyrics, delivered smoothly by singer Torquil Campbell, at the peak of his frustrated artist phase: 'When pop songs end, why do I feel fear?'"

Fairly unrelated, but there's another great song, also called "The Comeback" by the Shout Out Louds, so listen to that too.
