Album Intro：
2009 release. The L.A. quartet has emerged from the depths of recording studios and is ready to flaunt their new material. With only a short month off following an exhaustive two-plus year tour schedule behind their debut, SSPU locked themselves in a rehearsal room to begin work on Swoon. With the help of the Carnavas producer and mixer team of Dave Cooley and Tony Hoffer, Silversun Pickups churned out an album that Aubert says, 'sounds like a nervous breakdown'. The songs are taut, embellished in places with string arrangements that appear like a drizzle of mercury over the SSPU's trademark distorted density. The band's music acts as a shadow to Aubert's lyrics being pulled on a chain by his every vocal whim. His words narrate personal traumas, as though they could be commentary on headlines of any day's newspaper. As a whole, Swoon is a tapestry of beauty and aggression.
