Okay, I confess: I have a stack of wrinkled-up pictures of Ikara Colt bassist Tracey under my bed for evenings when the girlfriend’s away*. I’m not proud, but please, put that admission to one side for just one second and read this: this song is really good. No, really, it is. I know you’ve got the excellent album of a similar name and that you’ve heard this song already and you’ve seen the band three times in the last three months and they played it every time but STOP. Please. What’s the best way to earn a buck from an existing customer? Alter the product of course. Or, in this case, release a remix.

Given the once-over by Niklas Flyckt, also responsible for Rachel Stevens’ ‘LA Ex’ and Britney’s single of the year (I ain’t even shittin’ you) ‘Toxic’, ‘Modern Feeling’ comes on like Now That’s What I Call Miserable Indie Rock 1982 fast-forwarded through time Buck Rogers style. It’s so slick you could catch cormorants in it. It struts like a catwalk model and pouts like Leslie Ash. It’s moodier than David Beckham when Posh packs him off to bed without dinner for not wiping his bottom properly.

Long story short: listening to this is more a gratifying experience than leafing through a ragged pile of cutouts from the pages of the indie-rock press. Plus, you can always wipe a CD clean again…
