Transference by Spoon

After Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga in 2007, my hopes weren't too high for a new Spoon record. I picked Transference up anyway and after a few listens, I'm pleasantly surprised. It's a bit slow to get into, definitely not instantly catchy like Gimme Fiction or Kill the Moonlight.

Have a listen. The spooky, funky "Written In Reverse" is my favorite track, but "The Mystery Zone," with drums lifted straight out of "Billie Jean," comes pretty close.
