Maybe they took it back to fix it.

NO. Your Internet Opinion is WRONG

I liked it, but am having trouble remembering precisely what it sounded like before getting yanked.

At this point, it would take a really shitty album for me to turn on Spoon.

@Ray How could you not like Kidsmoke? It builds up so much tension and the release is magical(Eww.) I agree it’s long-winded, but it plays like a Stanley Kubrick film.

@Nay-Nay While I love DMB jabs as much as the next guy, there has got to be a Funx3 equivalent: Just fixin’ our eyeliner til Of Montreal? Just tightening out Afro chinstraps til Pharcyde?

I think I’ve always liked Spoon but yeah nice call on “Janies Got a Gun”. That’s pretty spot on and sums up my indifference to this song.

Course that being said, I remember having similar feelings towards “Ghost of You Lingers” and then GaGaGaGa turned out to be a pop masterpiece.

It also kinda reminds me of “Kidsmoke” and we know what happened to Wilco after that….

Equal parts “Janie’s Got a Gun” and the most boring fucking thing I’ve ever heard. No mysteries here folks.

I waited for them to get good, then they were, then it was over. Just like that.
