there was definitely some mid-era Spoon backlash. Right around when half of the board was saying "they are the best band ever" and the other half was saying "all their albums sound the exact same".
Well, I guess that last album shut up both camps, hahaha.
I'm in the "all their albums sound the same and they're still fucking awesome" category.
There was a time when Bloor and I first joined the boards and shoved DBT down everyone's throat. I believe Rads, Derris and Stu were early promoters, but with the addition Capt. America and Billy, we were able to get them on year end lists, etc. and some people were not huge fans. I know OPA called God Damn Lonely Love an Eagles song.
