ejc625 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Really the only Spoon album I can't get into. Love the rest of the releases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davepriz Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Yeah, I'm in. Most consistent band I know. There is seriously no other band where I can say I love all of their 5+ album discography. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youspinmeround Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Transference was a huge letdown. The first two records are very different but girls can tell through gaga was great. Soul might be their best work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youspinmeround Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 $34, 3LP http://www.bullmoose.com/p/21250453/spoon-gimme-fiction-3lp-deluxe-edition Should be around same price direct through merge, which don't charge shipping either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundfanz Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 I'll pass on this, the Merge first vinyl pressing will do me just fine. I do really like the album, but not enough to warrant the need for the 2 extra LP's with demo's etc. Kudos to Spoon, they are a consistently great band, and their albums sound wicked on vinyl too.

simple_torture Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 The merge direct pre-order will probably also either be: colored, include a signed poster, or something like that. Most Merge pre-orders have something like that now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simple_torture Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 The pre-order bonus is a poster signed by the band, if you're into that: http://www.mergerecords.com/gimme-fiction-reissue To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Spoon classic, Merge will release a deluxe limited-edition version of Gimme Fiction on double-LP (180g) and double-CD. The reissue contains the album remastered by Howie Weinberg from the original tapes, a second disc with 12 previously unreleased demos from the era, nine additional bonus tracks via digital download, and a full-color book containing photos and an extensive oral history of the making of the album. The deluxe LP package will also include a 24” x 36” poster. Gimme Fiction dragged the sonic pointillism of Kill the Moonlight further into dub-influenced weirdness as the increasingly confident Spoon went crazy in the studio, experimenting with everything from warped hip-hop samples to horse whinnies. How all this directionless Dylan worship and psychedelic goofing resulted in an album as sharply realized as Gimme Fiction is a testament solely to Spoon’s self-assurance and tastefulness (and some hard work, and a bit of luck, etc.). Whatever digging or strange alchemy had to go into it, they only produced more gold. Gimme Fiction deserves special recognition because it’s the album where Spoon—backed into a corner—took some crazy leaps, all of them forward. It’s a “departure point” for a band that, lucky for us, has never made a real departure. And when it came time for a reissue, we knew it deserved a lasting place on vinyl, right alongside every other indispensable record in Spoon’s discography. The first 400 preorders will receive a poster signed by the band. Preorders will ship to arrive on or around the release date of December 11.
