Swoon

There's nothing quite like hearing that a band you thought was lost to the wind has now reappeared from hiding with a new album. Silversun Pickups, the band who brought us "Lazy Eye" and "Well Thought Out Twinkies" off their debut album Carnavas in 2006, has come together yet again to create their second full-length album Swoon which was released today, April 14th, 2009. The band has toured with Wolfmother, OK Go and Snow Patrol and played Coachella in 2007 and will playing there again this year on Friday, April 17th, 2009.

Their new album Swoon, according to lead guitar/vocalist Brian Aubert, does not have straight forward mid-tempo sound, stating that "some songs are very quiet and delicate, others are just fucking loud." Their first single "Panic Switch" has reminded indie audiences of the subtle brillance of the Silversun Pickups that captivated them in the first place.
