Stutter (album)

Stutter is the debut studio album by Elastica, released in 1995. The album, a product of the Britpop musical movement, is characterized by its energetic, short, and sharp guitar-driven tracks. It received significant critical acclaim and commercial success upon its release, debuting at number one on the UK Albums Chart, making it the fastest-selling debut album since Definitely Maybe by Oasis.
