Star Little Thing are brimming with a certain Dublin charm that permeates this album, blending the sounds of early 90’s dance and Irish rock. This creates a sound that elevates them above the crammed monotony of many a local band. They have fashioned a debut album with some great songs but a few unnecessary fillers. In songs such as the recent single ‘Where Is The Child Gone’ one hears the latent potential of the band. It is a single layered with melancholy, menace and hope covered in a dance rock beat. While in a number of songs you feel they have over-salted the soup, Star Little Thing have concocted a commendable debut for an Irish band. It’s Easy To Be Alive You Just Are is the sound of a band with a lot of promise.
