anyone else into these guys? I've been listening to "Kill the Moonlight" and Girls Can Tell" over and over..."Gimme Fiction" is pretty great, too.

ive posted before about them about a year ago. theyre from austin (where im from) and id go see them when they first started out. id see them a couple of times a week sometimes and there would be around ten or fifteen people in the bar. they were none-bodies then. this year they got artist of the year in town and continue to make some great music.

my favorite album by them is "telephono" which is a bit uneven but has so many stand outs that's why i got hooked.

I've liked them for a while, but I found it tough to find more about them. Glad to hear they got artist of the year somewhere; this should help with their exposure.

i only found out about Spoon because one of their songs, "I Turn My Camera On", is in a Jaguar XK commercial. i ordered Gimme Fiction right away and it's turned out to be really good.

There is no spoon.

gimme fiction is pretty solid, and by far the weakest of the 5 LP's , so yeah, great great band.
