New Spoon - "Well Alright"
Time for your daily dose of Dark Was The Night. "Well Alright" is credited to Spoon according to the liner notes, and to Britt From Spoon (Feat. A Drum Machine) according to your ears. Not to look a charity-comp contribution in the mouth, but the bar is high. This sketch-song races along in under three minutes with two tracks of acoustic guitars, a computer beat, and Daniel's repeated insistence of how everything is gonna be between you and me. "Well Alright." So-so, OK:
Dark Was The Night is out 2/17 via 4AD.

first truly underwhelming track on the comp.
Score = 1
Mediocre Spoon is better than no Spoon at all.
Not Britt's best work, but it's still worthy of our attention.
Feels like a B-side from Telephono...
Score = 3

This cannot be new material for Spoon... even Series of Sneaks (1998) had more melody, construction, lyric quality-- more everything. This blows!

KInda sounds like it would go well on the Stubbs: The Zombie soundtrack.
