Over the course of a decade-plus of releasing albums, Stars have become the kind of band that is easy to forget. Not because they make forgettable music, far from it. They've maintained such a high level of quality for so long that they've become a reliable source of intelligent pop music with a giant, beating heart that has maybe, in a way, become too reliable for people who need to hear a new thing all the time. For anyone who just wants music they can count on to move them as they sing along, The North fits the bill just fine. Built as usual on the twin vocals of Torquil Campbell and Amy Milan and framed by a consistently interesting and well-constructed sound, the album does nothing to challenge their status as Canada's answer to Prefab Sprout or the Go-Betweens. 

The North may (or may not) be Stars' best album, it's hard to tell. What is easy to figure out is that they are still operating at top capacity and anyone looking for smart, emotional pop that sounds almost perfect can turn to Stars for all their needs. Just as they've always done.
