Quietly crashing into your local independent record stores this week is the new single from Spoon’s #2 Album of the Year from 2007 (according to me), Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga. “Don’t You Evah” is but one of many brilliant moments on the record, and on this new single it truly gets the royal treatment - 5 new remixes from some of music’s brightest young DJs (I’m just saying that, sadly I don’t know who any of them are). Oh yeah, and Ted Leo too.
The 8-song release features a brand new Spoon song - “All I Got Is Me”, which sways from dark and foreboding verses led by pounded pianos to a catchy, tambourine and slashing guitar fueled chorus. Also included is the original version of “Don’t You Evah” (actually titled “Don’t You Ever” - apparently Britt lost it in translation) by The Natural History. I hadn’t heard this band’s version before, but imagine Urge Overkill covering the Spoon version and you’d be close - dude’s voice is very close to Mr. “Sister Havana” himself, Nash Kato.
