Stereo 8000 is a new name for Finland's punk-rock couple number 1. Anssi 8000 and Maria Stereo.
Nearly with every release, stage incarnation they've come up with a new name for their project. What remains is the set-up and musically a strong character of their own. Steady consistency: It's some kind of rock music, noise pop, indie pop, post-punk, lo-fi. They like their edges rough, they like the duet vocals more and more. Actually with Stereo 8000 album, their third, you get those duets more then ever, delivered in their most energetic way. Yes, they like the screaming. They are singing their hearts out in an unpretentious way.
Their slightly off-kilter harmony vocals are becoming the duo's most distinctive elements, along with Anssi's foot-pedal-beats, Maria's Organ, distorted bass guitar riffing and twangy guitars. still all noise is in control and the songs, hooks and arrrangements keep some pop sensibility, their own Sahalahti country side style, far away from the big city lights and scenes and sounds. Mountain / Valley.
