	Lali Puna: Tridecoder (h2so4)
		One of the many exciting acts to come out of Weilheim is Lali Puna: Valerie Trebeljahr (voice and keyboards), Markus Acher (of Notwist and Tied and Tickled Trio fame on bass and sampler), Christoph Brander (also in Console and Tied and Tickled) on drums and sampler, and Florian Zimmer on keyboards.
		Trebeljahr, who was born in Korea (Lali Puna apparently means "Lali from Pusan") and raised in Lisbon, sings in both English ("for comprehension") and Portuguese ("for non-comprehension").
		What makes Lali Puna so interesting, besides being so pleasant to listen to, is the way they synthesize such diverse influences—diverse both in sound and outlook—as techno, noisy indie rock, electronic experimentation, and plain sweet pop, in a perfectly balanced way.

	Delusions of Adequacy Reviews - Lali Puna (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Lali Puna's kind of like that, not that if you listen to it you'll have your own visions of loquacious fauna, but that no matter what is happening, it will have a transcendent and soothing quality.
		John Soda, and Lali Puna is musically similar to those groups.
		The band is able to maneuver easily between and organic soothing quality of some tracks and a detached coolness, accented by vocals that would seem to belong to some vixen clad in leather with slicked back hair.

		Lali Puna have now become a fully fledged band, carefully selecting band members (from Console, Notwist, Tied and Tickled Trio, Iso 68, Fred is Dead).
		All the ingredients are there: The killer hooks, the subliminal fusion of generic undertones, Valerie Trebeljahr's alluring vocal delivery that at first soothes the senses and at second glance portrays the system in all its celluloid, deceptive glory.
		'The Daily Match' clearly focuses on Lali Puna's pop skills and is one of their most accessible songs to date.

	Lali Puna - Left-Handed EP (Morr)
		Lali Puna's first release since 2001's Scary World Theory is a rather brief reprise, perhaps due to Markus Acher's very busy schedule.
		Which is not to assess some sort of regression to Acher, Trebeljahr, and company, as the pop framework to the verses is simply darker-toned, but when the chorus comes in, the loud, distorted guitars mix beautifully with the ugly electronic tones to create a new sound for Lali Puna.
		The music here is very understated, much more like the Lali Puna you're used to instead of the one displayed in "Left-Handed." Trebeljahr's delivery makes the song, singing the chorus as a quiet, hushed lullaby.

		One of the first few things a new Lali Puna listener will notice with the music is the strong electronic influence, most evident in the title track, "Faking the Books".
		Lali Puna set themselves apart from their cousins, Ms John Soda and The Notwist, as the more rambunctious and roudy, but never too abrasive, part of the German family.
		All Lali Puna give you is a great rock record-- though they sometimes blur the lines between what could be considered rock, pop and electronic music.

		But in forgoing the lifeblood of dynamic and passion, the creative minds behind the project fall to maximize its potential, however agreeable their compositions may be.
		As releases bearing similarities to Lali Puna's pop décor pile up around me, I wonder if the pallid swish-and-click of queenly bedroom recordings will ever match the bolder electro/acoustic hybrids Europe produced two decades ago.

	Crutch Music Review: Lali Puna - Faking the Books
		But with the advent of groups like The Postal Service, Manitoba, and The Notwist (of which Munich group Lali Puna’s Markus Acher is a member), there has been a marked thaw: suddenly, IDM is being felicitously yoked to pop melodies, vocals and guitars, producing some of today’s most engaging music.
		Lali Puna is not the Notwist (whose Neon Golden is one of the most effective marriages of simple, streamlined IDM and simple, lovely pop melodies this writer has encountered).
		But Lali Puna veers more toward chopped-up, striated textures than the Notwist, and more toward rock dynamics that indie-pop.

	Lali Puna: Faking the Books: Pitchfork Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Which doesn't say much, as Lali Puna's idea of fucking shit up on their 2001 release Scary World Theory seemed to be, at worst, breaking into a building and rearranging the furniture.
		After a pleasant but ultimately faceless title track opener, Lali Puna provide a double-shot of well-wrought rippers: "Call 1-800-FEAR" is the first, boasting a no-nonsense drive, tight instrumental harmonies and undistracting electronic loops that bolster the song's pulse.
		"Micronomic", the album's second single, follows in similar temperament, and while not my favorite track on the album, speaks to Lali Puna's ability to cradle their listener gently in melody for one second, and to punch him in the face with a dirty riff in the next.

	Lali Puna - Faking the Books - Stylus Magazine
		ali Puna is one of the myriad groups putting out consistently intriguing material without taking the final step toward a defining masterwork.
		Often the lyrics came out deadened and awkward, as though misled by a translator fond of cruel pranks (the title track and its allusion to the ‘cookie monster’ was particularly strange).
		Opening with the gorgeous stuttering vocal samples of the title track, Lali Puna establish the same vague working area as previous works, but there is a distance in the similarity.

		It’s at such moments — not necessarily convenient — that music like Lali Puna’s comes into its own.
		Kind of sympathetic but stern — come on, it seems to be saying, pull yourself together, keep up, look what you’re missing — there’s a whole wide world of mystifying dysfunctionality out there.

	Lali Puna - Left Handed - Review
		When I talked to him a couple months ago when he was touring with The Notwist in support of Neon Golden, he also mentioned that he was at work on the new Lali Puna full-length and that the Tied And Tickled Trio had recently finished up another album.
		Only weeks after I spoke to him, Lali Puna is dropping this 3-song taster, and it's clear that Acher's contributions are starting to blur between the different groups that he's in.
		That's not to say it's a bad thing, but given the past sound of Lali Puna, "Left Handed" is just a touch more aggressive.

	Taste Test (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Valerie Trebeljahr, the singer/lyricist/keyboardist of Lali Puna, sounds like she gets laid over a lot.
		Echoes of Stereolab come across in Trebeljahr's warm, round, sine-waveish voice, and superficially in the group's cosmopolitan cross-culturalism (they're based in Munich, but she grew up in Lisbon, so she sings in English as well as occasional Portuguese).
		I'd love to hear how Lali Puna's new, meatier sound works on stage; it certainly works great on the record.

	Lali Puna - Scary World Theory (Morr)
		Lali Puna is more of a pop band than Stereolab.
		As such, the band doesn't hit the listener on the head with how smart they are.
		Lali Puna strikes a near perfect balance in their electronic pop, letting you settle into the music, get wrapped up in the textures, and then gradually let those simple little keyboard hooks dig in.

		All the ingredients are there : The killer hooks, the subliminal fusion of generic undertones, Valerie Trebeljahr's alluring vocal delivery that at first soothes the senses and at second glance portrays the system in all its celluloid, deceptive glory.
		For Lali the progression came with confidence : the amplifiers turned up,the instruments plugged in, the voice placed higher up in the mix and the storytelling edged closer to our confused, lawless, modern version of the world.
		The only certainty comes with connection, a connection to a band forging through stereotypes and inviting you to immerse yourself in songs that, once exposed to, will refuse to let go.

		Boom Bip's 2002 album "Seed To Sun" was a perfect exploration of the area between left-field hip-hop and what we've come to know as "electronica." This collection, with its varied remixes and points of reference, fills in some of the blanks, and throws in elements of post-rock for good measure.
