5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely brilliant! Maybe Stereolab's best album ever! 11 Mar 2001

By ditlev69@hotmail.com

Format:Audio CD

I got hold of this album Amazon a few months ago, and I simply can't stop listening to it. The sound is a combination of avant garde drone effects, 60s style moog synths, lilting hypnotic vocals sung in french and english and some of the most 'groovy' rhythms and chord sequences I have ever heard. The first track sets the scene perfectly: slowly building up the layers of organ, guitar, vibraphone, moog, and singing, before the second song "Misso Modular" - the single - crashes in with brass. Each song has it's own distinctive twist, but the album as a whole finds Stereolab picking up bossa nova influnces, as well as 60s easy listenign ones. Tracks 7 and 8 deserve special mention: 7 for being a daring 17minute composition in theme and variations form which is comparable to Djed by Tortoise; trck 8 for combining latin with easy listening and drum'n'bass! You have to get this album, it takes a few listens, but after that you won't be able to stop.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant 6 Dec 2007

By K. Javos

Format:Audio CD

This is Kind of Blue and Abbey Road territory here, people.

The Groop have been among my favorites for the past decade. They're quite capable of reaching the part of you where all artists aspire to, and they do so regularly. In my humblest, this is the pinnacle of of their talent.

Make this album a chapter in your life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Stereolab at their best 27 April 2003

By A Customer

Format:Audio CD

Probably their most even album, it marked a shift upwards in the band's trajectory for me - sustained by subsequent releases 'Cobra and Phases ..' and 'Sound Dust'. Full of exotic, beautiful tunes, with a rich, mature sound. Stereolab are a one-off and their unwilting musical curiosity keeps them ever interesting. They go to places beyond the limited horizons of the bulk of modern musicians, whether 'indie' or otherwise. Buy any of their albums, but this is a good one to start with.

Many bands produce music that, once you've heard one track, you've heard it all. Not so with Stereolab. This does mean that it's likely you won't always love everything they do. Read more
