Stereolab: “Wow And Flutter” (Duophonic Ultra High Frequency)

Anglo-French hipsters and Peel favourites churn out a steady and enchantingly-driven rhythm that forms a convoluted backdrop of keyboards and guitars for cool monotone vocals on a tune about that type of misplaced and naive acquiescence which ultimately has to become critical. Relentlessly stoical, ‘Wow and Flutter’ is hypnotic. For aficionados there’s also parts 3,4, and 5 of Nihilist Assault Group.
