"I'm going to use that in my next interview," claims Spoon's multi-instrumentalist impresario Eric Harvey, declaring that 'rhythmic propulsion' is the phrase that best sums up the sound of the band's most recent and seventh album, Transference.

"I like that - 'yeah man, it's all about the rhythmic propulsion'," he declares, totally deadpan. "I think that it's good that a band like Spoon can put out an album that surprises people and doesn't try to regurgitate what's popular from the previous record."
