It has been quite a while since anyone has heard anything new from Northstar, and even though Broken Parachute is not new it is just as refreshing. In fact Broken Parachute is a collection b-sides collected by the band in their years together. A few of the songs on this record are alternate versions of songs they have previously released like “My Ricochet”, which is now a stripped down acoustic version of the song. The whole record is a very relaxed record as most of the songs are either slower, or acoustic. If you liked anything Northstar did in the past (especially “Is This Thing Loaded?), then you will love Broken Parachute.
Listen if your down with: Taking Back Sunday, Brand New, Cassino
