Silversun Pickups

I heard of these guys when I was away in Spain earlier in the summer, playing randomly on M2, and they are fucking awesome imo.

This is their main single, but not their best song. Their album is one of those "every single song is good whilst some are amazing" albums. I'll be going to see them next wednesday as they are supporting the Foo Fighters and Nine Inch Nails in Dublin In all honesty, I'm looking forward to seeing them more than NiN. Unless NiN play Hurt, in which case yeah.

Maybe its your cup of tea, I dunno, I like them anyway

I've been into these guys since last year. They have done an amazing job of bringing a alternative/shoegazer feel to their music. I've heard many comparisons to the Smashing Pumpkins, but knowing a vast amount of pumpkins I would disagree on the most part.

Anyways I recommend getting the album, god knows we need to support good rock bands.

They were awesome live.

As were NiN
