Logic Will Break Your Heart is the debut album by the Montreal-based indie rock band the Stills. The album was released in North America on October 21, 2003, and in the UK on February 23, 2004. It included the singles "Lola Stars and Stripes", "Changes Are No Good" and "Still in Love Song".

The album elicited comparisons to Interpol and Echo & the Bunnymen, with AllMusic citing its "brooding post-punk soundscapes and art rock swagger",^[1] and Pitchfork noting its "retro arrangements, percussive guitar work, and 'big' cavernous production".^[2]
