stereolab - peng! (1lp/ reissue/ clear)

Stereolab’s debut full-length Peng! introduces the band’s signature blend of motorik grooves, fuzzy guitars, and French-English lyricism. The album channels influences from krautrock, no wave, and post-punk, laying the foundation for their future sonic explorations. While rawer and more minimal than later works, tracks like “Super Falling Star” and “The Seeming and the Meaning” display a magnetic fusion of repetition and melodic interplay.

Peng! is where Stereolab’s radical aesthetic begins—politically charged, hypnotically structured, and unmistakably unique. It’s a vital document of one of the most original bands of the ’90s beginning their singular journey.
