Stereolab - Rose, My Rocket-Brain! [2004]

Stereolab are a band who have developed a fair bit over their career, starting off as more straight-ahead drone Neu!-esque indie, moving into flirtations with post-rock and more experimental production, then heading more Bossa-nova Astrud Gilberto influenced in the latter years.
Mind you, having written that, quite a few tracks that contradict that come to mind! Either way, I've liked them for a long time and been lucky to see them several times over different phases of their career.

Of recent years, I think the "Margerine Eclipse" album is a real gem in their catalogue, and what we have here was a limited edition single on their tour for that album in 2004.
