Since 1990, led by French singer Laetitia Sadier, Stereolab's electro-rock music has tugged between easy listening and the experimental. In between are krautrock, psychedelic and film soundtrack influences, echoed on the albums Transient Random-Noise Bursts With Announdements (1993), Emperor Tomato Ketchup (1996) and Sound-Dust (2001). In 2002, the Bordeaux-based band lost guitarist Mary Hansen in a traffic accident. After Margerine Eclipse (2004), followed by a long silence, Stereolab returned in 2008 with Chemical Chords and its sequel Not Music in 2010.
