After a four-year absence, Spoon returned in 2014 with
They Want My Soul, one of their loosest recordings to date. Britt Daniels returns to Spoon with a new psychedelic groove along with new keyboardist/guitarist Alex Fischel. They Want My Soul feels more like a follow-up to 2007’s
Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga. “Rent I Pay” and “Inside Out” open the album with a one-two punch, in classic Spoon fashion.
They Want My Soul is deeply entrenched in Spoon’s signature organic sounding recording, with a warm bass, crisp drums, and crunchy guitars, with room for progress and innovation to make this album one of the year’s best. TU
