The First of the Microbe Hunters. Instant 0 in the Universe.
Elsewhere, Stereolab engage in the funkiest, heaviest music of their career. The wonderfully titled "Outer Bongolia" remembers that jazz also existed in the '70s, when artists like Herbie Hancock, Mongo Santamaria, and Les McCann rocked nasty. Intervals" picks along on a quiet acoustic while a gooey electric is strums with LSD tabs. Soon the song shifts into an analog forest of chirping keyboards and snapping drums. Don't write off Stereolab just yet. Possible, intriguing new directions are hinted at on Microbe Hunters. Nomus Et Phusis" bounces on jungle timpani, sounding so refreshingly non-caucasian. Forget their past trails- Microbe Hunters drifts away from the droning pop of their recent releases.
The disc itself is the standard issue release with individual artwork and packaged in a standard jewel case. All tracks recorded January 2000 at Blackwing Studios, except track 5 recorded at Idful Music Corp. Chicago, March 1997 and mixed January 2000 at Soma Recording Studio, Chicago.

Stereolab engage in the funkiest, heaviest music of their career. What was once endearing has mutated into the irritating, as the chanted vocals, simple organ runs and endless, pulsating rhythmic drones alienate listeners instead of mesmerizing them.

It is no stretch to say that The First of the Microbe Hunters is the first recording that the hardcore Stereolab fans need not own. After all, it's the first that offers no new twist or turn on the patented 'Lab sound. The record plays like classicist Stereolab, filled with all of the trademarks - pleasant drones, reverb-drenched guitars, cheap organs, effervescent, hypnotic vocals - but it's all been done before. And, arriving on the heels of an album that also sounded repetitive and slightly stale, it does not bode well for the band's future. This could easily be where many longtime, hardcore fans get off the bandwagon. Stephen Thomas Erlewine.
