Fred Armisen, the beloved comedian, actor, and former SNL cast member known for his musical curiosities, delivers his most unconventional project yet with 100 Sound Effects. This unique non-music album functions as both an entertainment piece and a practical sound library, offering everything from "Needle on Record" to "Romanian Crowd at Rock Club Shouting for an Encore" across its expansive collection.

Released through Drag City in 2025, this release stands out for its pure conceptual audacity and Armisen's meticulous attention to audio detail. The initial pressing includes a bonus CD featuring "Car Door Closing Car Rental" with liner notes by Carrie Brownstein, adding an extra layer of humor and collectibility to an already singular release that invites both deep listening and creative application.
