Created On: Monday, 05 March 2007 Hits: 111  The Stuff Beyond that, however, the Stuff play a brand of drop-dead cool, hooky garage rock/punk that belies their whimsical attitude toward identity. You can hear a lot of Fun House-era Stooges here, but the Stuff ply their craft with a little more laid-back insouciance than those godfathers of the genre; the lead singer/bassist (listed simply as "the rat in the leather jacket") often drops epithets like he's too cool to care, more Damon Albarn than Iggy Pop. "Pl-Pl-Please" -- a breakout single, if there is one -- finds the band borrowing liberally (and successfully) from T. Rex, while "Your Libido" has a twangy, minimal guitar figure reminiscent of early Devo. "Knock Knock" is probably the most infectious tune of the bunch, a perfect example of the band's blend of willful, brutal simplicity and sharply melodic smarts. Share this article to:
