Spoonfork - From The F

It’s okay to meditate about the last record store finally closing, but let’s recognize that music doesn’t stop just because no one’s buying anymore. There are still fabulous thinkers reaching deep into themselves and challenging us to extend our taste palate. Spoonfork is making no bones about bringing their virtuosity to a new sound that reflects some thought on our circumstances on this planet. “In the coffin there’s a note you might steal if you feel like dancin’”. And you know I am always looking for a new dance. These guys keep it going with Continuum, where they proclaim “we came to place, we came to make room for the invisible alien and you.” Along the way Spoonfork makes it clear they don’t want to be “the puppets that they make to entertain you,” but they manage to keep me thinking how interesting they are able to make me dance along with their philosophizing, even to the tune of Bustin’ Heads For Dr. Death (“freedom leaves a distinctive mark”). Shoutout for the hilarious Kid, Ain't Got No Love (“found there’s a breeding ground just outside my door.”). Spoonfork
