WELCOME to, The Elated Sob Story. The Happy-Sad Story.
I really like to illustrate my life through my blogs, so please subscribe to them to stay in better touch.
"The Elated Sob Story is an alternative, twee, pop, rock musical jubilee where everything is played fast, loose and just a little bit sad."
-- Steven Ray Morris from Foggy Ruins of Time blog
"...there’s the Placebo-esque drum-machine-backed Overbored, drawing influence from The Kills and The Cure, whilst agitated Beach Boys surf-rock-pop ballad Dance Song sounds as if it’s smothering the angry child of Nirvana under a damp pillow, and that’s just three songs..."
--Franc Botha, Maddog Magazine
"The Elated Sob Story aspires to be a diverse sound of different musical instruments and variety.... Star’s sound is unique, and I guarantee that after you listen to her tracks a few times, the melodies will be in your head."
--Ruth E. VanKirk of Morningwrite on blogspot.
