"Formed in London by ex-McCarthy frontman Tim Gane and Laetitia Sadier, Stereolab mixed hypnotic experimental electronica and naive French pop to produce one of the country's biggest cult bands of the 90s. The duo released low-key mail-order only singles as Stereolab in 1991, but 'Peng!' was their first album proper and saw the recruitment of Mary Hansen on keyboards, ex-Microdisney man Sean O'Hagan on guitar and Andy Ramsey on drums. 1993's 'Transient Random Noise Bursts With Announcements' tapped into the vogue for easy listening grooves and comfortably appealed to both dance and indie fans, giving the group a fashionable aura that led Sadier to sing on Blur's 'To The End' single. Maintaining a fiercely devoted fanbase, Stereolab continued to release critically acclaimed material, including 'Mars Audiac Quintet' (1994) and 'Emperor Tomato Ketchup' (1996). Despite the death of original member Hansen in a road accident in 2002, the band carried on with 2004's 'Margerine Eclipse'."^^xsd:string2
