The Greatest Music
Kill the Moonlight
by Spoon
The 1140th greatest album of all time
Kill the Moonlight, released in 2002, is an indie rock album by Spoon marked by tight, spare arrangements, precise percussion and Britt Daniel's clipped vocals. The songs are concise and rhythm-forward, with tracks like "The Way We Get By" and "I Turn My Camera On" showcasing propulsive drums, taut basslines and restrained guitar and keyboard touches. The album helped refine the band's minimalist approach and crystallize the sound they would be known for.
