Spoon "Transference" LP

Spoon follows up a good two years of critical accolades, sold out shows and stellar TV appearances supporting 2007's 'Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga' with its seventh full length album, 'Transference.' produced by the band, 'Transference' is made up of 11 new gems that honor the Spoon tradition while pushing the envelope of the band's sound ever further. 'Before Destruction' opens proceedings with a transfixing air of foreboding before 'Is Love Forever?' and 'The Mystery Zone' kick in with hooks that grip the listener's cortex with the tenacity of an aural tapeworm. 'Who Makes Your Money' and 'Got Nuffin', will be familiar to Spoon fans as the title track of the EP released earlier this year. Since the band's 1994 inception in Austin TX, Spoon have amassed one of the most loyal and steadily growing followings in alternative rock, with classic albums like 'Telephono' (1996), 'A Series of Sneaks' (1998) 'Girls Can Tell' (2001), 'Kill the Moonlight' (2002) and 'Gimme Fiction' (2005) each doubling their predecessors' sales. 'Transference' stands to take spoon to an entirely new level, as the previous 'Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga' was the band's first us top 10 album.
