In just fifteen days of sales in Latin America, the album went platinum.[4] The album was the centerpiece of the extensive Sueño Stereo tour that the band undertook in Venezuela, Colombia, Perú, Chile, Honduras, Panamá, Costa Rica, México and the United States, which began on September 8, 1995, in Buenos Aires, and ended on 24 April 1996 in Santiago de Chile.

The music video for "Ella usó mi cabeza como un revólver", directed by Stanley Gonczanski, was the winner of the People's MTV 1996, the first MTV award given to Latin music.

Background edit

Although Soda Stereo were known by mixing many styles and genres inside a same album, this record goes beyond and it has many more different sounds and influences, like pop, pop rock, alternative rock, dream pop, Britpop, electronic, shoegaze, progressive rock, psychedelic pop or ambient pop. Sueño Stereo was heavily inspired by The Beatles's Revolver (1966) and contains many references to it, such as the colors on the album cover; a song with the word "Revolver" in it (Ella usó mi cabeza como un revólver); and songs like "Paseando por Roma", which has a bass line based on "Taxman" and strings in the chorus based on "Got to Get You into My Life", as well as the B-side "Superstar" which is based on "She Said She Said". In 1995 they traveled to London, UK, to make the final mix of the album, and in an interview they spoke about the Beatles influence throughout their career.

Tracks 9 through 12 in the second half of the album – "Crema de Estrellas", "Planta", "X-Playo", and "Moirè" – are musically strung together, forming a medley likened by Cerati to a "little concept album". The lyrics of the song refer to a drug trip, inspired by Cerati's experiences with ayahuasca, and follow each other chronologically.
