Transference
Posted by BrokenSilence | Filed under Spoon
Spoon released their latest album, ‘Transference’, a few weeks ago, and to my slight heartache, I didn’t like it all that much. First Vampire Weekend, now Spoon and I’ll probably feel the same about Hot Chip’s latest. Not really much to say about ‘Transference’. It’s gotten pretty good reviews, described as tight, raw, though I feel it lacks style, funk and connection like their previous songs. Besides ‘Got Nuffin’, which I’ve already covered, the only tracks I like are below, mainly ‘Nobody Gets Me But You’, because it’s got that slap of Spoon funkiness yearning to break out.
Spoon - Nobody Gets Me But You(Removed Upon Request)
Spoon - Out Go The Lights(Removed Upon Request)

Got Nuffin

Spoon is one of my favorite bands and so I’m happy to hear that they’re coming out with their 7th album, ‘Transference’, on Jan 25th. Kick off single is ‘Got Nuffin’, which harks back to old school Spoon. It’s mid tempo, a little grity, got the hard powered, jazzy guitars, brushed and hard hitting percussion and slapping bass lines. Britt Daniel sings with a little edge in this one. I’m totally feeling Joy Division vibes here. Good stuff.
