Peng! is the first full length album from Stereolab, originally released in May 1992. In Peng!, the line between Krautrock and Dream Pop / Easy Listening gets blurry, which is reminiscent of their definitive (read actual) sound: Post Rock. The album features an interpretation of Charles Baudelaire's "Enivrez-Vous," a poem mixed with a remarkably calm tune.
