Transient is 62 minutes and a perfect length

Yeah, but the main reason for that is that Jenny turns 18 mins into the equivalent of 2 min effortlessness. This one feels a little longer, though not in a way that detracts

Idk man, for me when I listen to this its just utter beauty with no stops throughout. The Groop are masters of the transition.

Agreed AAS, same for me.

Love the love Ars, I am a real new fan too so I can easily understand the shock of finding out how good this is. And boy is it good. So many of their others are amazing too.

Yeah, every song works and feels necessary, at least upon first listen



Album's a bit long, so since my first listen, I'm been mostly listening to it in pieces, but I'll get around to a 2nd full listen soonish

Ah yeah, I feel. Most Stereolab albums have a kinda deadpan blitheness going on that's probs the same as what you're describing lol

''complex elevators''

Would that be Willy Wonka's elevator? Lucky for us there are no Oompa Loompas here.

ColeT try Silver Apples' s/t



It's psych electronic from the 60s, that's rock in spirit, but only uses vocals, drums and oscillator synths pretty much
