The new Stereolab LP is in and it's called Sound Dust. After extensive playing (about 6-7 times, cos I really wanted to like this) I can confirm that it's decidedly average. The single was a cracker, but they could do better I reckon. Opens nicely with the 1st track and stays pretty good but about half way through you forget it's on and it becomes a little bit non existent. It's not a bad record at all though, don't get me wrong, and if it was a debut LP by some unknown band it would probably be heralded as genius but I don't know..... you just expect better sometimes and maybe that's not fair?? Make your own mind up anyway. One to be French to.Be the first to review this record. Best reviewer each month gets £10 off their next order!
