silversun pickups g/b?

Hi therre!

didn't get too into the new album

but they're on letterman tonight

Yeah, I kinda felt like there was a couple of directions they could've taken their sound and the new album was the one I really hoped the avoided.

a few of the songs are great

you could build a great album out of all three records and i tried http://open.spotify.com/user/unbornwhiskey/playlist/6xz1ZTisxz3ecFFU93LeWI

sings like a girl

uh, great commentary.

most notable thing about them

I am kinda bummed about this album..

you could build a great album out of all three records
I'd choose 7 songs from Carnavas and 6 songs from Swoon.. and nothing from the new one. :(

unless the new one contains some massive growers that haven't stuck in my head just yet

"simmer" and "the pit" are both really great, "simmer" particularly in the vein of "the royal we." that build

did the letterman thing as an hour-long concert online exclusive thing

The chorus of "Bloody Mary" is constantly in my head. And they had a stopgap EP thing from last year, and the first song on that is really great - "Seasick." I would add those to your ideal album playlist.

yeah "bloody mary"'s really worked its way in. "seasick" was on an original draft of the playlist but it felt distinctly lesser than the other songs.

they're putting out a greatest hits which looks like it'll probably be their best album

01) Kissing Families
02) Lazy Eye
03) Well Thought Out Twinkles
04) Little Lover's So Polite
05) Panic Switch
06) Substitution
07) The Royal We
08) Bloody Mary (Nerve Endings)
09) The Pit
10) Dots And Dashes (Enough Already)
11) Cannibal

new song kicks

They had a two song single for the last Record Store Black Friday thing and it was supposedly two Carnavas-era songs recently recorded, but I can't find it streaming anywhere. Curious to hear it.

new album is totally their best, and proceeds logically from "cannibal"

new album, widow's weeds, out june 7. reportedly produced by butch vig. new song is amazing

Great video, good song. I don't think I've heard anything from this group since they sounded like Smashing Pumpkins; this one has more in common with DCFC. More importantly. Silversun Pickups - do they make a good living?

this is good

absolutely in love with the guitar tone in this

Can't wait to hear this, but can confirm that the video looks terrible without sound.

i LOVE the new record

absolutely in love with the guitar tone in this

can say this about every song

yeah this is pretty great.

my wife is a big fan of this band now so we went and saw them last night and they were great. wish I'd seen them earlier. i still find all their albums after the first one kind of a samey blur but they were certainly fun in a 90's way live.
