Spoon - Transference

Spoon follows up a good two years of critical accolades, sold out shows and stellar TV appearances supporting 2007’s 'Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga' with its seventh full length album, 'Transference.'

Produced by the band, 'Transference' is made up of 11 new gems that honour the Spoon tradition while pushing the envelope of the band’s sound ever further. 'Before Destruction' opens proceedings with a transfixing air of foreboding before 'Is Love Forever?' and 'The Mystery Zone' kick in with hooks that grip the listener's cortex with the tenacity of an aural tapeworm. 'Who Makes Your Money' & 'Got Nuffin', will be familiar to Spoon fans as the title track of the EP released earlier this year.

Since the band’s 1994 inception in Austin TX, Spoon have amassed one of the most loyal and steadily growing followings in alternative rock, with classic albums like Telephono (1996), A Series of Sneaks (1998) Girls Can Tell (2001), Kill The Moonlight (2002) and Gimme Fiction (2005) each doubling their predecessors' sales. 'Transference' stands to take Spoon to an entirely new level, as the previous 'Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga' was the band’s first US Top 10 album.

Widely announced by worldwide influential music blogs such as Stereogum and Pitchfork. First single and video plugging for 'Written In Reverse' commencing December 2009. Their previous effort Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga made it to Q and BBC Radio 6 Best of The Year lists. Spoon will be touring around album release and revisiting Europe later in the year.

For fans of The Shins, Wilco, Yo La Tengo, Sufjan Stevens, Modest Mouse and Flaming Lips.
