What was I thinking?
Thunderbirds Are Now might be my new favourite band after 20 seconds of listening.
Hell yeah, glad you dig them! Some big tunes on that album.
The singer/guitarist Ryan Allen went on to some other acts - Extra Arms, Friendly Foes - and also put out a really solid solo LP this year.
Will definitely check it out, cheers!
This was a fun exercise! And I'm glad Spoon and the Arctics didn't get the "once rated, now hated" treatment, LOL.
great albums! I do think that Girls Can Tell would be my pick for Spoon's definitive release but that's more personal taste maybe
Those two are like the Rubber Soul and Revolver of Spoon - I can't decide which one I like better!
while i actually agree with some of the picks you decided to pan this time around, i was totally ready to come to fisticuffs with you over tyranny of distance and was very happy to see you still love it.
haha, thank you!
that one has such a short accompanying text because there's not much more to say other than it is one of the all time best albums!!!! hell yeah
also I was reluctant to admit it but I think you're right about Electric Version
i drunkenly argued with MULTIPLE people at once about this in Rancho circa 2009
Secret Mommy reference in 2025 🗣️🗣️🗣️
so fucking good.
this song still BANGS https://open.spotify.com/track/6sobvSK0SXnqCIwm8qrxR5?si=a72e30bc078641b0
