American rock band Spoon was formed in 1993 in Austin, Texas. The brainchild of Britt Daniel (vocals, guitar) and Jim Eno (drums), the band has been a consistent force in the music industry.
With their unique sound and captivating performances, Spoon has gained a loyal fan base over the years. Their music blends elements of indie rock, post-punk, and pop to create a distinctive style that sets them apart from other bands.
Known for their catchy hooks and introspective lyrics, Spoon's discography includes critically acclaimed albums such as "Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga" and "They Want My Soul." Their songs have been featured in popular TV shows and movies, further solidifying their status as influential musicians.

Back In Stock

Something happened to Spoon between records five and six—they got big. It's not as if these unprepossessing Texans were unpopular before, but afterGimme Fiction, their music was everywhere. There was Britt Daniel, who has since moved to Oregon, singing karaoke on cult favorite Veronica Mars, there was his soundtrack for deadpan Will Ferrell vehicle Stranger Than Fiction, and then there were the countless times their tunes, especially 2002's "The Way We Get By," appeared in other movies and TV shows. The irony is that they hadn't signed to a major label (they tried that in the 1990s; it didn't take). Nor had they given their sound a major overhaul. Maybe it was a change of publicist, or maybe the times had simply caught up with these "faux punks/gentlemen dudes." In any case, Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga is the mark of men confident enough to give their album one of the world's goofiest titles (at least it's an improvement over Queen's "Radio Ga Ga"). If Gimme Fiction was a transitional work, record number six moves even further away from the angularity of Wire and other early influences. "The Ghost of You Lingers," for instance, is downright dreamy, while "You Got Yr. Cherry Bomb" is brass-bedecked power-pop (with chimes!). Open-minded listeners will surely find this Beatlesque song cycle irresistible. Fans of the Spoon's darker, more dramatic material might want to check their expectations at the door. They'll be glad they did.
