Album Notes The Apples In Stereo include: Robert Schneider (vocals); Hilarie Sidney (drums). 2002 Japanese reissue of the 1995 album. The CD has two bonus tracks: "Shine (In Your Mind)" and "Thank You Very Much." 1995's FUN TRICK NOISEMAKER, the debut full-length by Denver's Apples In Stereo, was a revelation. This was the many pop listeners' first exposure to the now-legendary Elephant 6 recording collective. With this instant classic, Ruston, Louisiana, native Robert Schneider and his wife, Hilarie Sidney, created a giddy, kaleidoscopic romp through late '60s light psychedelia. Imagine the Zombies' ODESSEY AND ORACLE mixed with an extremely '90s experimental aesthetic, combining sunny pop tunes, indelible hooks, and lo-fi home recording methods with a cheerful try-anything-once attitude. FUN TRICK NOISEMAKER's exhilarating "Tidal Wave," "Winter Must Be Cold" (a showcase for Sidney's vocals), and the ultra-bouncy "Glowworm," with its insistent la-la-la chorus, are among the finest pop moments of the '90s. Pop music doesn't get better than this.
Editorial Reviews ...all late-'60s, fuzz-drenched neo-pop with a psychedelic undertone...but rather than come off as cheap imitators they manage to present themselves as genuine progenitors... Option (09/01/1995)
...The Apples....have worked and reworked their sound and sensibility within a narrow range until they have learned to produce attractive pop miniatures. An inherent modesty lies within each song, like a slight wave of the hand as a cloud rolls by, yet there is an impressive depth to their melodic structures and production technique... Alternative Press (08/01/1995)
