Album Notes The Apples In Stereo includes: Robert Schneider. Australian exclusive edition features five bonus tracks. Sometimes it seems as if the entire Elephant 6 collective is hell bent on re-creating the soundtrack to "Yellow Submarine." Songwriting machine Robert Schneider and his band of merry pranksters, The Apples In Stereo, come as close as anyone ever has in this fuzzy, buzzy, fun-trick-noisemaker of a disc. The Apples' sunshine-y and singable pop is as influenced by late 60's Beach Boys as it is by The Beatles. It's dizzy, pretty and so aggressively cute in fact, that your pre-schooler will take a shine to it (except for the prominent use of the "F" word on "Y2K"). There's the welcome addition of drummer Hilarie Sidney's incredibly catchy tune, "Questions And Answers." And, of course, there's the E6 mandatory synthesizer free-for-all. The whole package is tied together with a clever recurring theme, plucked out on a toy piano.
