Right on time, Spoon’s back with another indie record. A good one. Luckily for us all, Britt Daniel finally realized that Spoon should sound like Spoon. With none of his infamous new playthings from Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga, the man behind the funny black glasses can finally make amends with his actual fan base, otherwise known as all the people still listening to Spoon long after their local Best Buy took “Sister Jack” out of rotation. Transference is really for fans of earlier Spoon (think Kill the Moonlight era) to rejoice in; these typically good but less pop-oriented songs are complemented by the band’s willingness to still use closet-muffled vocals and be structurally repetitive.   -
