Another great Starflyer release
The "Miami EP" is a pretty clear follow-up to last year's release, "Young In My Head," which I awarded 10 bombs. In fact, two of the five tracks on this release are either spiritual twins or direct successors to tracks from YIMH.

But that's not necessarily a bad thing. In fact, while I was listening to the final track "Bored" for the first time and I was able to sing along with it, it slowly dawned on me that it was a continuation of the song "Cry" from YIMH, which was cool. I hadn't expected it. It isn't the same song at all, but it has some of the same tune and lyrics in a new form.

The other three tracks on the EP are new and fresh and have a killer surf-rock/shoegazer/British rock vibe. Starflyer 59 has evolved and changed so much in the past 27 years, but their songs are distinctly "Starflyer" which is no mean feat.

This is another great release that is well worth a listen.
