I think Spoon has released some semi-relevant albums, and usually make a new one every few years. They are one of the many forefathers of indie rock who have morphed into 'cool dad' rock with a 78% crossover appeal to older 'rock n roll fans.' From what I understand, they have a new album. I think they get a lot of support because they have fans who 'still actually buy albums.'

Saw this live performance of "Who Makes Your Money" on Jimmy Kimmel Live. I wonder if this song 'sounds good on the album' but possibly 'doesn't translate well' to live TV. Felt boring. I feel sad for potential fans that they could have reached, but didn't really play something that sounded warm and approachable. This seemed too 'ambient and conceptual' for mainstream fans.

Not sure why Bradford Cox was on stage. Maybe he is still trying to plug Atlas Sound's album LOGOS. Seems like they were really just bro-ing down on stage, playing their guitars with shit eating grins.
Is Spoon an authentic band?
Is the new Spoon album worth illegally downloading?
Does n e 1 know if this is just a case of the 'sound guys' ruining the 'levels'?

Is it time for Spoon to 'go on hiatus', then 'pull a Pavement' and come back when their stock is high?
