CD ReviewsInspired, deranged, magnificent Jean Cocteau | space | 02/25/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "Why aren't these people famous and adored? maybe they're just too eclectic, clever, melodic and willing to mix the electronic sublime (Cosmonaute) with the punk ridiculous (Aua).But seriously, they are truly magnificently talented, funny, ironic, joyous - anyone who likes Le Tigre, Miss Kittin, Francoise Hardy, the White Stripes, or Serge Gainsbourg will take this to her/his heart - adult but child-like, noisy but melodic, ironic but emotive, electronic but punk rock - THEY HAVE IT ALL!!!" They're NOT Siouxsie and the Banshees, but........ Dean Orff | 07/21/2006 (3 out of 5 stars) "Tupac Liebowicz is Mistaken. SIOUXSIE and the BANSHEES Never did the techno-pop version of the golden oldie "Money" -- that was a totally different group called the Flying Lizards. Siouxsie and the Banshees were a great British gothic-rock band . This STEREO -TOTAL CD is not much like them, but it's also not bad. It's good, freaky fun if you like electronic pop-rock made with wacky, neurotic personality. It's not serious musicianship in the conventional sense, it's for entertainment. Not for everybody but "different strokes for different folks" as the saying goes." Tongue in cheek total stereo send up!!! Mendicant Pigeon | pdx, or United States | 12/29/2002 (3 out of 5 stars) "Today as I got my hair cut by my record label owning, punk band playing barber he and I chatted about the only thing we have in common besides an appointment to cut hair: Music. It shocked us both to discover we share an affection for the band Stereo Total. Quite frankly he's never admitted to enjoying anything outside of the punk music genre and I rarely find myself liking anything in it. How then can two with such disparate interests find commonality? Stereo Total says it all. It's difficult to describe just what this Franco-German group plays but I suppose that it might be described as witty cabaret music with an Indie pop edge. The band sounds like Edith Piaf meets Debbie Harry singing, backed by the Possible Giants meets Pizzicato Five with a little bit of lounge music oompah thrown in for good measure. It's pretty fun stuff, innocuous and entirely non-threatening; the sort of thing you'd not be afraid to play to anyone, just don't count on them all getting the joke. If I'm not mistaken, this band has a minor following amongst Japan's pop music crowd which, considering that market's appreciation for the enjoyably bizarre, is entirely unsurprising. Three stars only because like most indie pop ephemera the novelty wears off after a while, albeit a relatively long while, if you please. bye bye"
