Carnavas
The wait is over. Silversun Pickups are about to unveil their debut full length on July 25. The Angelenos have been hard at work in the studio for months since the release of their EP 'Pikul', and are excited for the finished copy to hit the shelves. Singer/guitarist Brian Aubert offers, "We worked our asses off and we are very proud of the finished product." Using Pikul as the blueprint, the full-length seamlessly continues with Silversun's signature sound. Aubert continues, "We stayed very focused on a feeling for the full-length. It's colder, more mechanical, moodier - but at the end of it all, it's a rock record. And that's what we wanted to make." The album captures the moody nature of Silversun Pickups' sound: fuzzy guitars, driving bass grooves, ethereal keyboards, angular drums, all complemented by Aubert's unmistakable, raspy vocals. This duality is the quality that sets the Silversun Pickups apart. more

- Loving it.
Been desperately shopping around for new music for quite a while, since I got a new car, and needed to update the music I housed in there. This album is perfect. Heard them on Pandora Radio as a recommendation for people who like Placebo...

- Smashing Pumpkins comparison is fair but.....
I understand some of the comparisons to the Smashing Pumpkins, but I don't necessarily like the comparison. The Pumpkins were a much more accomplished group with many more albums. Some of the distorted guitar and high-pitched vocals lend...

- Excellent debut album!
Everyone focuses on how much Silversun Pickups sound like the Smashing Pumpkins or My Bloody Valentine and even Sonic Youth. For me that's missing the point. Isn't all new music influenced by all that's gone before? It has to be! What...

- Good CD
Although I feel like I was slightly mislead by the 2 singles, (which portray a much faster and more rock-oriented CD than what we got here,) I was pleasantly surprised, after a couple listens, how much I liked some of this music. Some...

- One good song, the rest blows.
All the songs are very similar and annoying. There was one good song on the whole cd. Would not recommend.
