Well hello (or ‘knock knock’),
Spoon have still got it. There’s
a bit more in the way of electronic elements, a bit more reverb, one song (“Pink Up”) with a ghostly steel drum and vibraphone groove, and a closer (“Us”)
that taps experimental jazz, but in its bones this is simply another excellent
Spoon record, catchy, muscular and (still!) fresh as always, in which the hits
- “Do I Have To Talk You
Into It”, say, or “Can I Sit Next To You” - hit as
joy-inducingly as ever.
