Broken Splendour is a Melbourne three-piece fronted by ex-Texan songwriter Thomas Vecera, who appears to favour a mild kind of MOR pop rock, judging by this single (Dire Straits without all the crafty songwriting). Posters strives to overcome its own hokey nature with the occasional staccato drum beat and some shiny synth layers, but fails.
