Though they began their career in the mid-'90s as fine but unremarkable Pixies clones, Spoon have grown into one of the best bands in America, and their mastery over sonics and songcraft grows with each new album. Core members Brit Daniel and Jim Eno have taken a variety of mostly British influences and spun them into a distinctive sound that is as American as their hometown of Austin, Texas. Gimme Fiction, Spoon's fifth album, is their grooviest yet, exploring a heretofore unseen funky side. Like R.E.M. in the '80s, Spoon seem to be able to do no wrong -- a refreshing constant in the current climate of one-album wonders.
