Halfway through so far and this album is awesome. The singles raised my expectations and so far they’ve been exceeded. Full sounding rock songs, but no less of that sweet Spoon style.

Oh man, they sure do. Apologies to Eddie Vedder but I’ll be listening to this all weekend instead.

I haven't listened to Spoon in forever. But I want to check out this new one based on Strat's review alone.

:lol:

If any of you had said it was a sexy, I would have credited you with igniting my interest. It wasn't so much about strat (though I do trust his opinion) as it was the description.

Guys, I'll be honest, the first post I read in this thread was Strat's.

I'm actually not sure I've ever posted in or read through this thread at all before today.

I know I listened to Kill the Moonlight. and Ga Ga... (when it very first came out).

But I think that's it.

those are two of my favorites of theirs.

i really suggest digging into this new one and then letting it germinate for a bit. you'll get such an appreciation for how the band got to now.

and strat is right - this album is sexy

I actually think hot Thoughts is pretty good as well.

Its a nice record to put on and kind of be some weird vibey background music.
