Sure they're from LA, but Bay Area scenesters have embraced the Silversun Pickups as one of their own. Perhaps it's their powerful, passionate melodies and driving rhythms (that call to mind early Smashing Pumpkins, especially the potent hit "Lazy Eye") -- that have fans, DJs and bloggers foaming at the mouth. And pals Brian Aubert (guitar/vocals), Nikki Monninger (bass), Christopher Guanlao (drums) and Joe Lester (keyboards) are poised to keep the momentum going. Fresh off a stint with Wolfmother and an electrifying performance on David Letterman, the indie rockers prepare to hit the road with Snow Patrol and OK Go. As one friend put it: "This may be the last time you see the Silversun Pickups in an intimate venue." This is the Silversun Pickups at Popscene. Learn more about them here: www.silversunpickups.com

Yeah Zeitgeist was pretty bad, sorry pumpkins. These guys are brilliant. And although a few songs on Carnavas are downright terrible (trying too hard to force other instruments/vocals around other bandmates' efforts, maybe?). Most are great though. Hope to see atleast a few more records out of them cause they nailed something solid and memorable on their last effort.

They use a lot of somewhat distorted guitars and open strings like Smashing Pumpkins. They aren't too similar, they just share a similar guitar sound.

breakingcharacter (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
