Silversun Pickups take an edgier and less subtle approach in this album and probably not an album can be sat through just once; you need to let it grab your attention through every listen. This also goes for the lead single "Bloody Mary (Nerve Endings)": a haunting nod to the infamous folklore tale. This new approach feels less organic but doesn't stray as far to the sound that they have made in the past.r

Every song on this album is simply amazing, one of the best indie-rock albums I've ever heard.

Great album, Interesting stuff. Much better than their previous work, sounds good enough to fit in modern music but it has a slight touch of their classic sound. r

Neck of The Woods is all I could ask from a band that continues to rule for what they are.

Accidently hit 5 , as I think it's just a tad bit weaker than the 1st two albums. Although , Dots & Dashes,Gun-shy Sunshine are in my top 10 favor SSPU somgs

A shift in a more experimental direction for Silversun Pickups. It's a bit more atmospheric and ambient with more synths and electronic elements mixed in. It's not as immediately engaging as their previous releases, and it takes multiple listens to fully digest and get into. Despite that it's a fitting evolution in sound for the band.

Great album, just doesn't have the same uniqueness of all of the previous Silversun Pickups albums. No real big hits here or anything. Nothing OUTSTANDING, nothing that's going to blow you away, which every SP album has had up until now. Anyways, still a great record, and I look forward to whatever SP does next.

While finding both the band's previous releases pretty striking in sound, Neck of the Woods almost feels like a step back from previous awesomeness. While possibly a slightly deeper outing then its predecessors (though that may be a tough task to accomplish) the overall impact after four or five listens comes off a little disappointing considering how much hope I had for this album. Hopefully the depth of the record will translate into a grower after giving it a little time to sink in.

I've become obsessed with this band over the last 4-5 months, their music is enjoyable, and has some bite to it. However, the newest album is too tame, there's no passion. I can forgive that there aren't as many loud moments as Swoon, but most of these songs have no recognizable tune, and overall, this album if forgettable. It's not bad, but it's not up to normal Silversun standards.

It's a great album. That's all there is to it. Fans should definitely like it. It didn't branch out far from what they have been doing, and it's very entertaining. Some of the riffs feel very similar to not only what is on this record but their previous ones as well, but it's nothing to fret over.
