Stereolab sets dates for fall tour, new album

The busy, summer-concert season is officially upon us. When planning the ultimate warm season of music, though, it is important to consider the abundant possibilities that follow in the cooler autumn months. Namely, Stereolab will tour in support of its album Chemical Chords, the group's first full LP in four years. The album will be released Aug. 19 in the U.S. and Aug. 18 everywhere else.

According to our calculations, Stereolab fans should reserve approximately 14 cents per day for Chords. Set aside even more to enjoy one of the following shows, several of which feature Laetitia Sadier playing double duty in both Stereolab and her burgeoning side project Monade.
