Post Description

Silversun Pickups are just one of those bands that don't get enough credit. They've been dubbed a Smashing Pumpkins knockoff due to the similarities between the two (love of fuzzy guitar leads, unique vocals, initials, 3 guys 1 girl, anthem rocking tendencies, face melting bass lines, etc. - mostly things that NO other band has ever used, obviously) and written off because many people never dig deeper than their hook-heavy singles. But every time they pop an album out, Silversun Pickups gives the real listener ample reason to take in the album as a whole and enjoy the phenomenal journey between first and last track. As new album Neck of the Woods is the first SSPU record produced by Jacknife Lee (also produced Bloc Party, Snow Patrol, Weezer, The Hives, and U2), it's the first that really feels like a pop record. But thanks to excellent songwriting and new lyrical territory, Neck of the Woods expands the Silversun Pickups sound without too much repetition.
