Product Description

From Amazon.com

Life has gotten so much easier for these guys ever since Pavement broke up. After all, how many flannel-shirt wearing, floppy-haired, Fall sound-alikes can the average person swallow? Oh well, now that the playing field is theirs alone, Spoon do not disappoint. Kill The Moonlight is their most melodically accomplished work to date, shimmying through the primal tambourine shakes of "Small Stakes," breaking a sweat with the spiky lo-fi swagger of "Stay Don't Go," and getting all starry-eyed on the three-and-a-half minute acoustic epic "Don't Let It Get You Down." So good, you'll even forgive them for blatantly Malkmus-derived song titles like "Paper Tiger" and "Vittorio E." --Aidin Vaziri

4.0 out of 5 stars The Opposite of Pavement...but still a good record, May 17 2004
By Jake (USA) - See all my reviews
Ok, So why does anyone think this sounds remotely like pavement???I feel like it is the exact opposite. This is NOT a bad thing..since pavement is great and why would anyone want to hear a remake of a great indie rock band..thats just stupid. But to give a huge comparison: Spoon loves OPEN SPACE! like other reviews have noted. Pavement LOVES noise...yes its sparse but in a completely different way. Spoon loves to mix up lots of different styles of music and put it into one good disk. I've only had this album for..um..one listen..but i can tell that is one of those records that i will just put in at different times and it wont grow old.

4.0 out of 5 stars Taking steps, Jan 6 2004
By john b (Concord, NC) - See all my reviews
Okay, I'm going to admit first that I'm really new to the whole genre (if I can dare to call it that) of indie. I read some of the other reviews and noticed that they've been compared to Pavement and a few others I have heard before. I think Wilco was one of them too. I'm not really, intimately familiar with those bands so I can't say that they are or are not.

Working from that perspective, coming at Spoon from a recommendation and with no experience with the type of music, I have to say that I love this album. I bought it and drove to the beach (like a four hour trip) and listened to it the whole way down and the whole way back. I agree with some of the other reviews that the beat-box song can be annoying but other than that songs like Jonathon Fisk, Somebodys Something and Vittorio E are fantastic accomplishments that are a real joy to listen to. I can't say that I have 'Girls can Tell' but having gotten this one makes me eager to get it as well as for the group to do something else.

Bottom line: this is a must have for any person serious about music.

4.0 out of 5 stars Corporate pop=bad, indie pop=good
"Kill The Moonlight" is one of those albums I love without being able to say exactly why I love it. Indie music is just as full of copying as the mainstream, but this band still... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as Girls Can Tell and still worth getting
Spoon and Wilco are the best bands in America. Now that Pavement is done, Pulp seems to be through, Blur is disintegrating, and the White Stripes - despite all of the praise... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars All Aboard the Gravy Boat
The song kicks off with a rambling, a rambling which is good, a rambling which to you may not be a rambling...rather perhaps a click, or a snap, or a Blamo. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars wonderful deconstructed rock album
I really like this album. It feels like sound clips taped together. All of the songs are catchy, lyrically complex, and melodic. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Spoon owns. Become a fan.
Spoon are one of the best bands around. They aren't much different from most bands in the way that they are a rock band that plays instruments. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple songs defined by one of indie rock's best bands
When I saw Spoon on Conan O'brien I was enticed by the simple yet catchy song "The Way We get By". But when I bought the album, I was hooked after the first listen. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Pavement? I think not
Maybe I'm crazy but to me "Kill the Moonlight" sounds like a Tom Petty record, but with less guitar and more piano. Somewhat Ben Kwellery, as well.

Pavement, i think not.
