I honestly set myself up for utter dissappointment with Silversun Pickup’s sophmore release Swoon, but have found this recording to be in contention for one of the most listened to albums of this year. It’s a great rock record dense with orchestration, and the question of how they are going to fill in those spaces live, is to be answered. This video for one of my favorite tracks “The Royal We”, taped by the folks over at Spinner.com touches on that answer, but the live experience will only complete. I think we all know that the live show from the band is usually pretty far off the mark (ACL 2008?). We wait. Until then.

Head over to Spinner.com for more of the performance and an interview by the band.
