Hey wake up everyone it’s Spring time!

Come and join Ben and Alex this month as they dance around - not the maypole or the mulberry bush - but The Fashion Focus, Starflyer 59’s fourth studio album.

Released in 1998 this record marked a significant change in the band’s direction. Eschewing their earlier crunching guitar shoegazing sound Jason Martin and his cohorts tackle existential crisis, depression, and impotence with a much softer, synthier feel.

Described as a ‘coming of age’ album, replete with Old Testament themes of sibling rivalry and sorrow, The Fashion Focus does a merry dance taking the listener on an eclectic journey of foreboding, faith, fun and friendship.

If Elvis Costello and Frank Black were produced by Morrisey in an attempt to rival Radiohead then you’ve got some idea of what’s in store for you with The Fashion Focus.

And Ben and Alex might even tell you what Starflyer 59 means…

...but then again they may not.
