Stars dish out new album details

Break out the poutine and let September 25 be a second Canada Day in your heart, for that is when Montreal electro-poppers Stars release their fourth album, In Our Bedroom After the War. Mixed by Joe Chiccarelli (Morrissey, The Shins, The White Stripes), the record’s greatest song title is definitely “Bitches in Tokyo.”

In case you’re unfamiliar, Stars includes two members of Broken Social Scene – but don’t call it a "side project."

"People don't say, 'Oh, I had a kid and now I'm having a side-kid.' You know what I mean?" singer Amy Millan told the Toronto Star.
