"Like Wow - Wipeout" is a song written by Dave Faulkner[1] and recorded by Australian rock group Hoodoo Gurus for their album Mars Needs Guitars!. As a single, it was released on Big Time Records in October 1985 and reached #28 on the Melbourne Record Charts.[2]
The B side of the single, "Bring the Hoodoo Down", was also written by Faulkner.[1] It had already been released as a B side on the United Kingdom 12" single for "Bittersweet".
"... was only recorded as a b-side but producer Charles Fisher thought it "had something" and should be included on the album. No-one was more surprised than us when it became the second single and our biggest hit at the time. We just liked it because it was noisy." - Dave Faulkner.[3]
