I really dig how on THIS ONE he uses his quirky Bowie-Lennon-Lynne vocal stylings to great effect (and love how he uses his screaming twanging Gretsch so well on others...) and wow I can never forget the time this thing first flopped out of my speakers onto my desk and demanded its rightful attention and worship, and I gotta thank sweet RP for that!

The only time sounding like one has a head cold has ever worked... Love the vocals so hard.

I really dig this album and Ga Ga Ga. Not such a fan of the new one, but maybe it'll grow on me.

Ah, BillG moves seamlessly from a song called "Loser" to a singer called "Loser." Damn, I love this station.

Wow, exact opposite to all of my Spoon experiences. They've been spectacular every time I've seen them. |

from another show attendee (with possibly better seats), "terrible"/"horrible" is bit a harsh. good show (admitted some sound issues) - great bands. both bands new album material played well live. see this double bill if you can. period.

In general I like Kill the Moonlight and Girls Can Tell a lot better than Gimme Fiction, but this track is really great, probably the best on the album. 9/10 for me

A co-worker brought this in one day last year, I liked it instantly. Then I foolishly waited almost a year to get it myself. Then gimme fiction just kinda exploded on my consciousness. I had heard a little spoon before this disc, and liked it, but g.f. is the i feel unquestioned masterpiece of a band hitting the hell out of their stride. One of the best best best most challenging casually rockin'est albums in many a year. Every track on it would be, for me, 9 or above (okay, i quibble, sisterjack maybe 8). This one, 10.
Hmmm, only 7 spoon tracks on the list. Oh, that'll change. Too good.

This has been a slow burner for me. Which is a good thing!! Brought the album now - very happy with the result.
