Stereolab have announced their first new album in 15 years. On May 23, the group (or “groop,” if you prefer) will release Instant Holograms on Metal Film via Duophonic UHF/Warp. Today they’ve shared the first new single, “Aerial Troubles,” which you can hear below.
Stereolab recently teased the album by sending out a mysterious 7-inch single to a select number of fans, featuring “Aerial Troubles” on its A-side, and with a cryptic word search insert. Take a look at the album details below as well as the band’s tour dates throughout 2025.
