Look, I like good lyrics as much as the next music fan. But for me the biggest catch of Assistant’s Flowers is the “do do do do do do do do” throughout this song. The three-piece from Brighton, England lists Felt, Stereolab and the Field Mice as its influences but at least on this song (Flowers appears on a split 7” with Manchester’s Goodbye Wudaokou) sounds a lot more laid back: a simple acoustic indiepop song that you can just imagine listening to while walking along Brighton beach at night. While humming “do do do do do do do do”.
