ROOTING FOR LOVE [LP] (FULL COLOR INNER SLEEVE WITH LYRICS, CREDITS, PHOTOS)

Stereolab's Laetitia Sadier's new album, Rooting For Love, her first since 2017's Finding Me Finding You. Laetitia issues a call to the traumatized civilizations of Earth: we're urged to finally evolve past our countless millennia of suffering and alienation. Her songs score the complexities and harmonies within this directive: organ, guitar, bass, synth, trombone, vibraphone, live and programmed drums, and a vocal assembly of men and women billed as The Choir, working intricate chord/tempo/and dynamic changes, as Laetitia's empathic presence leads the way.
