Less is more. At least that's what Spoon's Britt Daniel seems to believe on their 2001 effort "Girls Can Tell". These songs creep into the listener's subconcious in a way that is very refreshing in a world where every rock singer feels the need to scream about their "misery" in your face. Britt Daniel is the songsmith of the band, but just as the songs do deserve their credit, just as much should be given to the production of the record as well. You can hear the guitars, the drums, the bass, the keyboards, and the vocals with all their nuance. It's so good to hear a record with songs as sharp as these and feel like you are in the room with the artist. Understated and still true, the ideas expressed on "Girls Can Tell" are romantic and still fresh after all these years. Here's hoping Spoon can make a good run at records like this for years to come.
