JF-yeah I busted out Being There recently and was blown away again. Bonus snark: Wilco latecomers who love the experimental sound and then say Jesus etc. is their fave song on YHF.

Pretty ballsy for a band with (at the time) much less than legendary status: "I'm listening to 'Mountain to Sound' / and the way it's panned is cool."
That might be a good thread: bands referring to their own back catalogue in their songs.

People, Transference is a killer record. For some reason that one never made it on my radar until now. Thanks Spoon poll.
― kornrulez6969, Friday, 24 July 2015 01:27 (eight years ago) link
Yeah, I don't think I ever realised what a great record Transference is either until I just went back to it earlier today.
― Kitchen Person, Friday, 24 July 2015 01:41 (eight years ago) link
Aargh, I left my ballot at work & won't be back there for a week. I'll just have to listen to them all again.

Transference is one of those records I've turned the most around on in the last ten years.
― The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 24 July 2015 02:01 (eight years ago) link
love how the drums and guitars are mixed to sound as thick as possible to coincide with the spareness of the arrangements.
given the albums before and after it transference feels more and more like a love letter to deep spoon heads. it's one of my favorite records, period.

starting to give out confirmation emails, give me about an hour and if you don't get one after that please speak up or resend.
― Bee OK, Friday, 24 July 2015 03:41 (eight years ago) link
everyone as of right now should have received a confirmation email.

Transference really dropped in my estimation after They Want My Soul. What with the Telephono & Sneaks Brian Hursting and everyone going lukewarm on Ga I suddenly feel like I'm on a different page from everyone else.
― ledge, Friday, 24 July 2015 06:31 (eight years ago) link
Transference is pretty awesome. As good as GGGGG and GF; still think KTM is their masterpiece though.
Tried TWMS again yesterday and it's just not there. It's not bad, but there's something missing, to my mind.
― Hey Bob (Scik Mouthy), Friday, 24 July 2015 08:10 (eight years ago) link
TWMS feels like their Make Believe or Stadium Arcadium, or something. it sounds like some combination of their previous work, but with all the worthwhile features sanded off for "streamlining's" sake.
― soyrev, Friday, 24 July 2015 08:22 (eight years ago) link
it took me forever to finally come around on they Want My Soul and it has some killer songs. especially "New York Kiss" which this poll is named after.

I've just sent it to the poll email address. It's a Google Sheet, it's fairly simple and self explanatory. I'm not sure how sharing works with Google Sheets so you might want to save a copy and remove me as a user to stop me seeing the results?
