Though they're based in Berlin, the witty pop group Stereo Total draws band members and musical influences from across Europe. Vocalist/guitarist/drummer Francoise Cactus is French and vocalist/guitarist/keyboardist Brezel Goring is German, and the group has included members from Italy, Scotland and Bohemia. Their 1995 debut album Oh Ah on Bungalow Records introduced their kitchen-sink approach to pop music, which embraces punk, hip-hop, disco, '60s pop and rock from France, the UK and the US, as well as electro and new-wave elements. Further Bungalow releases like Monokini and Jukebox Alarm followed; in 1998, the group made their US debut with their self-titled album on Bobsled Records. My Melody followed in 1999.
