Stella

Stella were a three-piece indie/emo band from Auburn, New York that were briefly active in 1995 following the break-up of another band, Underside. Members of that band went on to become 2/3s of Stella, who played a handful of shows and recorded these 5 tracks as their swan song. Those recordings became the debut release of Grafton Records in 1995. Stella can be loosely compared to bands like Everyone Asked About You and Ribbon Fix (another Grafton band), with some very washy guitars coated in distortion and reverb, bordering on a shoegaze tone. This is a fascinating little EP, definitely worth giving a listen to. Enjoy.
