Wild Flag - "Oh Yeah"

I'm not sure how "Oh Yeah" missed the cut for Wild Flag's debut and ended up as a bonus track, but it's recently moved into favorite song territory for me thanks to Mary Timony's hypnotic ear-catching vocals and Carrie Brownstein's bubbling and rhythmic lead guitar work. Though the song lacks a prominent bass, "Oh Yeah" reminds me a bit of a Kim Deal-sung Pixies track: fuzzy, sharply melodic, and relentlessly uptempo pop music that leaves you hitting the play button over and over again.

Buy Wild Flag on vinyl from Merge Records.
