Stereolab is a UK-based band whose style, mixing 1950s-1960s pop and loungemusic with the "motorik" beat of krautrock, was one of the first to which the term " post-rock" was applied. They are noted for the use of vintage keyboard instruments like Moog synthesizers and Vox and Farfisa organs. Stereolab is also notable for founding their own record label, Duophonic Records, with a grant from UK charity The Prince's Trust. The band is often referred to as "The Groop" by their fans (and in the title of their song "The Groop Play Chord X" on the album Space Age Bachelor Pad Music). They were founded in 1990 by songwriters (guitar, keyboards), formerly of the band McCarthy, and Laetitia Sadier(sometimes credited as Seaya Sadier; vocals, keyboards, trombone, guitar), who is from franceand sings in both English and French.

Stereolab
Hideous on the edge of a precipice
Their cavity filled up with forgetfulness
We know theres no retribution, only war
<<or possibly: we know theres no retribution, no reward>>
Their society overtly ...
The meaning of existence cant be supplied by religion or ideology
<<or possibly: the meaning of existence can supplied by living in an ideology>>
<<or possibly: the meaning of existence can be defined by living and not by theology>>
<<alternating with? ? ? : the meaning of existence can be supplied the ridding of ideology>>
Left to all the creativity we must find
The real significance that good and fearless defined
<<or possibly: the real significance that wouldnt be mystified>>
Their sense or nonsense that will emerge on a precipice
Its only the impact of the creative activity
