Stereolab – Chemical Chords

With this release launching on August 19th, London based Stereolab has been pumping out lounge pop since 1990. As the Great Wiki describes them:

“…one of the most fiercely independent and original groups of the Nineties”, Stereolab were one of the first bands to be termed “post-rock”. Their primary musical influence is 1970s krautrock, which they combine with lounge, 1960s pop, and experimental music.

Go check out Stereolab on myspace Then, go get your pre-order on so that you’ll be the first on your block bumping Stereolab’s Chemical Chords. I’m of the opinion that this one’s a bit boring for frequent listening, but if you need something to chill out and fall asleep to, this will probably do the trick.
