Spoon
A Series of Sneaks
1998

Spoon announced themselves with a beautiful blast of shimmering feedback on "Don't Buy the Realistic" on that killer Matador comp, "What's Up Matador?". This being my first Spoon purchase at some scumbag Pittsburgh used-CD store. They've never touched this album in terms of tight pop songs, loaded with crunchy riffs and scorching solos. Guitar heavy. I've always wanted to do one of those Beck-style cover records of this album.


a series of hits:
Utilitarian, Minor Tough, Metal Detektor
