About
Spoon, Twenty-five years of Austin indie rock with precise craftsmanship.
Spoon emerged from Austin’s vibrant music scene in 1994, initially a collaboration between Britt Daniel on vocals and guitar and Jim Eno on drums. Their sound synthesizes post-punk energy with indie pop and alternative rock textures. Early releases appeared on Matador and Elektra, before a steady relationship with Merge Records furthered their reach. Their catalog includes seventeen vinyl albums, reflecting evolution from raw indie beginnings like 1996’s Telephono to polished works such as the 2022 LP Lucifer On The Sofa.
From limited edition colored vinyl to standard LP pressings, Spoon’s vinyl output offers collectible variations with price data showing strong collector interest especially in albums like Hot Thoughts (2017) and Lucifer On The Sofa (2022).
