Haha Sound is the second studio album by English indie electronic band Broadcast. It was released on 11 August 2003 by Warp Records.
Haha Sound earned critical acclaim and became Broadcast's first charting album in the United States, where it reached the top 10 of the Billboard Dance/Electronic Albums chart.[1]
Recording
Recording sessions for the album took place in fragments at various locations: Keenan recorded vocal tracks with her head in a cardboard box which gave it a "closeness and deadness that makes it sit in the mix a bit nicer," while drummer Bullock recorded drum tracks in a neighborhood church before overdubbing guitar tracks and additional arrangements.[2]
Critical reception
Haha Sound received highly favourable reviews from music critics.[3] Paul Clarke called the album "a dizzying ride" in his review for Jockey Slut.[4] Pitchfork placed Haha Sound at number 121 on its list of the best albums of the 2000s.[5] In 2007, the record was listed by The Guardian as one of "1000 Albums to Hear Before You Die".[6]
