After a 15-year studio absence, Stereolab returns with Instant Holograms On Metal Film, their first album since regrouping in 2019 and one of the most anticipated records of 2025. The band picks up right where they left off, folding together their signature blend of electronic textures, krautrock rhythms, and Lætitia Sadier's unmistakable vocals into something that feels both familiar and refreshingly alive. Produced with the help of Cooper Crain of Bitchin Bajas and Cave — evoking the spirit of their celebrated late-90s recordings — the album delivers a sound described as pleasantly warm with a satisfying balance of clarity and depth.
Instant Holograms On Metal Film showcases the full breadth of Stereolab's signature sonic palette, featuring contributions from an impressive cast of musicians including horn work from Rob Frye and International Anthem artist Ben LaMar Gay. Released on their own Duophonic Ultra High Frequency Disks label and distributed through Warp Records, the album arrives in a gatefold jacket and has already earned recognition among the best albums of 2025. For longtime fans and newcomers alike, this is a genuine return to form from one of indie music's most singular and inventive groups.
