If you're only going to get one Yello album, this isn't it but it's close.

There's no doubt that Yello is an acquired taste but this just about as good a place to start as any (though many will no doubt argue for the seminal You Gotta Say Yes to Another Excess).

Stella captures the band at their dark, quirky best, mixing stange themes, vocals and sound effects over Yello's unique rythmic style. Key tracks include the dreamy yet cruel Vicious Games, the menacing Domingo, and a riveting version of Let Me Cry that pulsates like a snake slithering through a dank, South American alleyway.

Yello's most famous song, Oh Yeah, also appears on this album but if you're like me you'll never, ever want to hear it again.
