5.0 out of 5 stars So different and so good, 2 Jun 2004
By Mr. Paul J. Scarrott (Sheffield, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Schmack! (Audio CD)
I had never heard of Steriogram until about 2 months ago when whilst listening to Launchcast, Walkie Talkie Man came on. I was instantly hooked by the intro's fast heavy riffs, followed up by a fusion of speed guitars, hip hop style vocals and smooth chorus. I had to hear more, and now finally i have.

It'd be so easy to hear one song, love it and then be disappointed with the rest of the album. I'm very glad to say this is not the case. From the first track, Roadtrip, i had a smile on my face. What steriogram are doing is so fresh, upbeat and relentlessly cheerful that you can't help but tap your feet and sing along.

Now, as a rule, i dislike hip hop and rap, but when fused so seamlessly with some excellent punk guitar stylings, it just works. There's no attitude, no negative aggression, just a pure fun, energetic band. If you want music to make you think, look elsewhere. If you want music to dance to, sing along to and generally enjoy, this is for you.

The only disappointment on the whole album is the next to last track, Be Good To Me, which is a little slow and plodding for my personal tastes. Having said that, it isn't that bad that i would ever bother skipping it, so it is only a minor critiscism.

The only problem for me is that, over here in Britain we don't even have a release date set for the album yet. I am desperate to see this band live now, and if the live performance lives up to the hype and the quality of this album, they'll be unmissable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, 10 Jan 2005
I bought this album after hearing walkie talkie man on mtv2 once while flicking through the music channels. Absolutely fantastic, walkie talkie man is still great (especially played in your car or on your ipod!) but the rest of the album is equally as impressive, especially Shmack and fat and proud. Definately a must buy!

4.0 out of 5 stars Most amazing debut, 11 Dec 2004
By Rock Chick (Stafford, UK) - See all my reviews
I bought this album on the strength of the snippet of Walkie Talkie man from the i-pod advert, and I wasn't disappointed! Fantastic rock tracks seemingly "overlaid" with hip hop was a new direction for me, as a die-hard 80's classic rock fan. But blimey do these New Zealand boys do it well. "Road Trip" & "Schmack!" are particularly good listening. My only criticism would be that the tracks are short and consequently the length of the album doesn't last for the whole of my commute to work. Good job listening to it twice isn't too much of a chore!!!
