LAB REPORT

That new Stereolab disc does not come out until August, but a preview track is now available on iTunes and as a gimme on Pitchfork.

This is me listening to Three Women.

Mildly funky drummer. Mildly bubble gum guitar. Oooh, vibes. I like vibes. I guess the horns were inevitable. Drum break, and it sounds a little sproingy. This one's in French, so it can be about whatever I want it to be about. I've decided it's about Sophia Loren's sister, although I'm not sure if she actually has a sister.

Man, was Sophia Loren the epitome or what?

This track? Not quite. But it's enough to make me come back in a few months...
