Thanks for all the recommendations - I ended up buying them all - I'm definitely in a Spoon phase! Not sure how I missed them earlier in my listening "career?" I think my favorite overall is Gimme Fiction.

I can't stand this band. I don't know why. I just do. Something about that guy's voice is just grating. Every time I hear a Spoon song come on, I just go "Ugh."

I love this song. The entire album is awesome. It's definitely overlooked... I still listen to it every now and then.

Saw these guys on Austin City Limits recently. They groove just as well live (or better!) as in the studio.

Amazing set all day — really appreciated. Spoon, Calexico, Johnny Cash - can't go wrong.

Gawd, I am such a spoon junkie. And no, whatever you think Spoons represent, I'm not into that. Just the band.
