Spoon playing Radio City Music Hall in March, new album "Transference" out soon (cover & tracklist)

Spoon Transference

Spoon‘s critical acclaim is almost comically universal. In December the online review aggregator Metacritic named Spoon the best artist of the decade, above acts like Radiohead and the White Stripes. In March the group will headline Radio City Music Hall. Though the band is now spread out around the country — only Mr. Eno is in Austin; Mr. Daniel moved to Portland, Ore. in 2005; Mr. Harvey is in Dallas; and Mr. Pope is “intentionally homeless,” he said — it has a palpable cohesion thanks to Mr. Daniel’s rigorous songwriting and pared-down aesthetic. They wear button-down shirts onstage and have no notable haircuts.” [NY Times]

Spoon‘s new and seventh album, Transference is out on Merge Records on January 19, 2010. You can listen to the first single at NPR. A trailer for the album along with the tracklist and currently known dates below…
