Band: Stereolab
Album: Dots and Loops
Best song: “Miss Modular” is a great song.
Worst song: “Refractions in a Plastic Tube” meanders and kind of stinks.
I don’t know why Dots and Loops means anything to me. Last week, I listened to it for the first time in five years and thought something I don’t know that I’ve ever thought about a record: Why did I like this?
Don’t get me wrong, Dots and Loops is anything but a bad record. It’s pretty good, actually. But, the love for this album I had was as large as the sun. I listened to it all the time and tried to convince everyone I knew that it was brilliant. In my defense, the best song on the record is sung in French. Also: I was 16.
