Stereolab

Stereolab's new record, Chemical Chords, is slated for release in mid-August. It's been four long years since their last LP and anticipation has been rapidly growing amongt fans of the avant-garde electronica/rock group.

While no material from the album is available at present, I couldn't help but think back to 1996 - specifically Stereolab's breakthrough work Emperor Tomato Ketchup.

It's a testament to the considerable talents of the group that, twelve years on, the music sounds just as fresh and inventive as the day it was released.
