BAND: STEREOLAB
ALBUM: TRANSIENT RANDOM-NOISE BURSTS WITH ANNOUNCEMENTS
RELEASED: 24 August 1993 – 25 years ago
ALL MUSIC review: “Though it was the group’s major-label debut, Stereolab’s Transient Random-Noise Bursts With Announcements showed no signs of selling out. If anything, it’s
one of the most eclectic and experimental releases in Stereolab’s early career, emphasizing the group’s elongated Krautrock jams, instrumentals, and harsh, noisy moments. The album begins and ends with smooth, sensual washes of sound… . If Switched On and Peng! defined the band’s essential sound, Transient Random-Noise Bursts With Announcements expanded it, reaffirming Stereolab’s place as one of the most innovative and evolving groups of the ’90s.”
Score: 4.5/5 – Full review here
TURN UP THE VOLUME! says: A stunning mix of hypnotic and mind-boggling jams with Krautrock, Kraftwerk and Velvet Underground echoes. Sounds as challenging today as back then. Electronic masterpiece!
