Silversun Pickups

Absolutely fantastic. Sincere and entertaining crowd interaction. The songs are brilliant live, they had a nice selection off each album, although didn't really leave a big hitter for the encore. Much as I like Substitution and Common Reactor, they're nowhere near as good as a Panic Switch/Lazy Eye finish to the mainset.

Can't wait until the next album and tour.

Fantastic at Heaven the other night in London. Also really impressed with both support acts (An Horse & Animal Kingdom) who I thought were perfect for SSPU. Loved the setlist and the combo near the end of Panic Switch/Lazy Eye was amazing... Managed to take a few good snaps also...

Also.. Did anyone else see Scott (Guitarist) from Cancer Bats about also .. I was front right and he came along side and I was like ... WTF?!.. I would never expect you here and just went and said hey!... sound dude!... His a massive fan of An Horse. So yeah... was a nice surprise.

Does anyone know/have the setlist from Oxford's show?

Totally loved it, was amazing.

I was also at Oxford, and thought it was stunning

I've also just found out they will be supporting Placebo on the UK leg of their winter tour, so I get to see them again in December! As if Placebo wasn't exciting enough already

Good interview with SSPU!

I agree that the Smashing Pumpkins comparisons are getting f**king lazy now. They are a band that uses a lot of fuzz, and shoegazer elements; that's about it. Ok, I know that the Pumpkins did that aswell, however it was only one string to the Pumpkin's bow, and SSPU pursue many a sound that the pumpkins didn't bother with.
