Spoon - Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga

$15.98 (list price), Rock, Merge

Basic Story: Following the success of, well, basically everything they’ve done, Spoon return yet again.

Sample: Bet you got it all planned right/ bet you never worry never even feel a fright/ never be down/ I said don’t ever/ because it’s gonna keep em’ hangin’ around.”

Verdict: Some bands seem destined to always be good. Spoon prove on this album that such destiny isn’t so far fetched. In fact, they make it seem inevitable. The songs are predominately cut from the same cloth as those on Gimme Fiction but with a few left turns thrown in. “The Ghost of You Lingers” is perhaps the most experimental Spoon has ever gotten, and it succeeds. Best of all is “Don’t You Evah,” their catchiest song since “The Way We Get By.”
