If either of you do listen to 'Kaputt' make sure you listen to the version of the album with the 20 minute near-instrumental Laziest River on it - it just adds to the experience so much, it's where the album really opens into a classic world builder. It's total genius. I will stop gushing in a second.

maybe it was put on the UK version, it's meant to be between 'Song for America' and 'Bay of Pigs'. I'm sure you can find it somewhere to stream (if not youtube it, it's up there). If you buy a copy of the album definitely get Laziest river on it.

Four tracks in and pretty disappointed. This feels like Spoon by Numbers.

Thanks sowing, much appreciated
My vote for best/most consistent indie band of the millennium is probably:
Spoon
The Walkmen
The National
In that order

Literally how is this Spoon by numbers?? They're spicing up their sound with more electronics and more groovy rhythms than ever before.

Let Me Be Mine is my fave from TWMS, and is by default my favorite Spoon track because I've only heard that album and this one

Sowing you need Ga^5, Kill The Moonlight, and Girls Can Tell
Zak the 5 is a hype rating, really it's a 4.5 for the time being.

So far in the battle of the middle hitters Spoon and The Shins...both got a 3 as predicted. Up to Depeche Mode to break the trend.
The Shins was hovering on a 2.5 then 'The Fear' hits and that's a better song than anything else on that album (or this).

Don't get how you can rate this, or any spoon, after 1 listen Doof bro. Spoon are the sorta band I've always had to sit on.

Pink Up is very Future Days-ish, which is really cool.

Phero, I sat on their other albums and they ended up on pretty much the same ratings as now so I don't think it's that much of an ask to rate this one after a first listen.
Spoon have some great songs but they don't release albums full of consistently great songs for me. For my tastes the vocals and lyrics are just functional. I wish they'd release a whole album in the style of 'Ghost of You' or something like maybe 'Whisper' and 'Pink Up' off this, with maybe two 'Rhythm and Soul' and 'Can I Sit' tunes breaking them up.
Basically I'd like 8 out of 10 songs quite fragmented and experimental, with two solid rockers...not the sort of other way around how they operate now.
