JonathanGFeb 20, 2006By far Stereolab's most interesting and emotional work. Amazing structural development, with interesting polyrhythms. The brilliance of this is hidden just below the surface. Don't listen to the lazy critics who overlook this album.

CoobDec 12, 2002Can you believe Stereolab singer Mary Hansen in dead? I still can't believe it. They are such an innovative band and it is such a tragic loss. Anyhow, Sound-Dust is amazing. Check it out!

Entertainment WeeklyA disappointment compared with their action-packed output of the late '90s. [Fall 2001, p.136]
-
An optimistic-feeling, playful record that recalls the jazzy-edged sunshine and beat pop of the '60s.
-
A major rebirth, relegating the chirpy melodies to expedients, relying less on Sadier's monotone singing, and reaching for new formats within the group's formidable compositional skills.
