Spoon – Got Nuffin
Spoon are somewhat of an indie rock institution in the States but never seem to get the light of day over here. Their last record, the excellent Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga was one of the best albums of 2007 but was largely overlooked and practically impossible to find in a record shop. Anyway they’re back and it’s time to PAY ATTENTION.
