You ask me to be stone again
Been wading out here for awhile
At least the weight could be the end
But not likely
And it's draining
And it's draining
You see my shadow coming in
Dirty sheets pulled to your chin
Maybe now we can begin
But not likely
And it's draining
And it's draining
And we're evading
And it's draining
You've asked me before
You've asked me to consider operating
We've been here before
We've been here though the delivery's no good
And we'll leave it alone
We'll leave it, that's when we start repeating
And don't ask anymore
Don't ask me, the delivery's no good
And it's draining
And it's draining
And we're evading
And it's draining

Don't hear much from this band. Good music!
His vocals are creepy😡
For years i thought it was a woman 
Amazing texture. Excellent stuff here.
I like it! But, it is not their best tune.
Great bunch of musicians, but what they express, so dreary.
Used to like the vocals until I realized they are creepy. Maybe that video with both of them .........
Love this song!

Sounds kind of like the chick from Hooverphonic
What a weird voice.

Several of their songs are very good and are refreshing departures from familiar musical memes. Think of them as "palate cleansers". : )

Love Silversun Pickups. Thank you Bill
I agree. Solid album that I've played a million times. And I really do not like "Smashing Pumpkin's" voice. But he does a lot with it.Love Silversun Pickups. Thank you Bill
The most important band Bill has introduced me to in the last 3 years.

An interesting band. I've heard them kick ass. But a steady stream of these kinds of arrangements and that voice would be... draining.

I must just be in a real music-mood today, because I've loved every song Bill's played so far. We're getting our new dishwasher installed now, and it's bigger than the space where the old dishwasher used to be, so I'm locked in my bedroom with nine cats (don't want them in the way of the installation guy, or escaping while the front door is open during the transfer of appliances.) We're all just sacked out everywhere, listening to RP and chillin' untillin' .....

Would have been the perfect voice for any one of those insect movies. I happen to like the "Bee Movie" as a match for this guy's voice, but prefer Seinfeld.
You mean my ex-wife Linda?

Oh man, got tickets to see this band next Friday at a fairly small venue. Looking forward to it - BIG TIME!
I'm kind of in love with this band due to their similarities to Smashing Pumpkins... I mean, the music's also fantastic, but they evoke a sort of strange nostalgia for me because of the aforementioned relativities.
Don't know why, but this guy's voice gives me the creeps...
Great song, would be wonderful to hear more of this band.

I think in personal relationships, that's a safe rule to live by. Probably a recipe for a dreary life. But on a comment board, it is absolutely the opposite. This is a really tame forum. If you think it is bad here, then don't venture far, you'll die. Try a political board. Forget it.

This music is good for my Hotel room!
Discovered these folks here on RP. And dozens of others. Thanks, Bill, Rebecca.
The more I listen to this group, the more I like them.
Solidly quite likable to me. Kind of Smashing Pumpkins meets another band. I don't which band - just another band.

@ Cynaera... you definitely traded up. We have dogs, lots of dogs... 7 right now, and we've had 12 in our home at one point. My wife and I run a rescue program called Pet Adoption Network and we're always taking in fosters. We currently have 3 fosters and 4 of our own, with 20 dogs total listed on our website... we're a small rescue group that has between 4 to 7 foster families working with us.
When you talk about comparing a bunch of kitties with a troubled human you are so right... much easier with animals in my opinion.
Always love to read your posts by the way!
Take care and keep up the kitty love!

There's a story behind why I have so many cats, but I don't want to bore you (I actually have twelve, but technically, two of them belong to my brother, and two of them were rescued from a friend who was suicidal and knew she couldn't take care of them.) And it's not as bad as it sounds - they mostly get along, all are fixed, and some are just fat and happy and sleep a lot. It's an arrangement I can handle. I was married to a guy who had various addictions (pot, cocaine, alcohol, loose women, speed—driving fast, living fast— and danger—hanging off the top of an unfinished 200-foot microwave tower by one arm and one leg with no safety harness.) He was more trouble, work, anguish, expense and frustration than a hundred cats, so I think I traded up.

What I admire about this band is the almost teen-aged-sounding vocal belying such deep lyrics. Don't be fooled. They sound like Hanson, but the words are much more ominous and deceptive. They're not what they seem. Gawd, I love that.

Well i'm going to buy this as well, but almost all albums that I buy lately seem to disappoint. I thought i had a winner in Mojo by Tom Petty. I'm still getting used to it but it's not as good as I thought it would be. Now I've made this CD a playlist in Spotify, so I will test it there before buying.
I was working on something else when this song came on, and I had to stop and listen. Loved the vocals, the rhythm, the sheer musicality - and then I saw that it was Silversun Pickups. Day-am, I really love this group. Them, and Turin Brakes. Maybe this has to do with my life lately, and my space in the universe. Two CDs I'm definitely going to buy, once I'm laid off from my current job and get on unemployment so I can afford them.

This entire album really is quite good. I moved back in time and acquired Carnavas, which at this point I like just as much as Swoon. It's a bit more raw, but still has that feeling of... I don't know, "urgency" is the word that keeps coming to mind.

Ok, I've got to buy this CD. RP must have played most of the tracks on it and not one has been below 7. A distinctive and moving sound that gets the goosepimples rising. 7 from the Nottingham jury.

Just saw them at East River Park in Brooklyn NY. They put on a very strong show. They did not play this tune, which is one of my favorites but given how many one hit wonders will always abound. This band can put out a total album with strong songs. Don't forget the references to Smashing Pumpkins is just their lineage. It isn't bad to sound like another band. That is sort of how it works, no?

Awesome band and the new album is very, very strong. Highly recommend. Awesome driving music. Especially on boring state highways to keep the mind going.
I am really sick of this band and Porcupine Tree. I can hardly tell the difference, and I don't really care to.

Aptly named.
I ♥ SSPU
Like the band, not the singer
This is a draining common disaster!
their lead singer is creepy looking in a Crispin Glover kind of way. Kinda ruined them for me. That and the overplay they are getting on RP.
Didn't know they had a new album. Listened to the first album until i couldn't hear it anymore, shame...
wasn't impressed by the second but this sounds really good.

Just saw them live and they ROCKED. Their drummer keeps a pace that makes me hope he doesn't keel over by the end of the tour.

You know, I totally support everyone having different tastes, likes & dislikes—that's what gives us such a wide variety of great music. But I'm sorry, anybody who can "hardly tell the difference" between SsP and PT should just give up and listen to talk radio. Or do a double van Gogh.
Thanks for saying that because I couldn't figure out what to do: I thought the SsP song was another Steven Wilson debacle also and was thinking of using an icepick but your idea is much better.

I am really sick of this band and Porcupine Tree. I can hardly tell the difference, and I don't really care to.
