Free Music Review: Not their best, but certainly not your worst
Hit: 3 Stars

3 1/2


The Texas foursome's winning streak continued with this year-after follow up to the widely praised Girls Can Tell. Spoon effortlessly continues to create catchy, tense, radio-friendly rock at the drop of a hat, though the quick release may be indicative of the hurried feel of the disc. Of course their are a few amazing songs, worthy right next to the strongest elements this band's challenging synergy conveys at best. There are also a few tracks that take a more experimental turn, framing much around electronic effects. These tracks are mildly fun but often feel more half-cooked experiment then full-on incorporation. The bulk of the (typically brief) disc remains impressively standard, neither expanding upon Spoon's fun template nor regurgitating past themes; the band simply gets by with another solid, punctual, and personal release.

Kill the Moonlight Poster

Life has gotten so much easier for these guys ever since Pavement broke up. After all, how many flannel-shirt wearing, floppy-haired, Fall sound-alikes can the average person swallow? Oh well, now that the playing field is theirs alone, Spoon do not disappoint. Kill The Moonlight is their most melodically accomplished work to date, shimmying through the primal tambourine shakes of "Small Stakes," breaking a sweat with the spiky lo-fi swagger of "Stay Don't Go," and getting all starry-eyed on the three-and-a-half minute acoustic epic "Don't Let It Get You Down." So good, you'll even forgive them for blatantly Malkmus-derived song titles like "Paper Tiger" and "Vittorio E." --Aidin Vaziri
