The Tired Sounds of Stars of the Lid

The Tired Sounds of Stars of the Lid (also known as The Tired Sounds Of) is the sixth studio album by the ambient music group Stars of the Lid. It was released on October 29, 2001, via Kranky, and was recorded by the group through sending tapes to each other. It received positive reviews from critics for its composition, and would be considered as the sixth best ambient album of all time by Pitchfork. The album is mainly composed of drones, string instruments, and horns, and spans two CDs. Kranky would later repress vinyl copies in 2015, because it was out of print.
