ALBUM REVIEW: Stealing Sheep - Wow Machine
Crossing unashamedly into the realms of the ridiculous, they trade their signature triplet vocals, stacking memorable hooks as fast as they discard them. The breathless four-song opening stretch is nothing less than perfection.
“Synthetic Love Muscle” has the youthful feel of early Bananarama & Fun Boy Three, or even Sugababes.
“Replicate” is a minimal pop masterclass in the vein of The Human League, just as they were transitioning from moody industrialists to full on chart nominators.
