It was May 22, and only two days earlier, Daniel had returned to his home in Austin, Texas, for the first time in weeks.
Eric Bachmann, who fronts the indie band Crooked Fingers and is a friend of Daniel's, believes Spoon's success can be attributed to the care and planning the band puts into its creative process, from writing and arranging to execution in the studio.
Daniel said it was more important to get everything exactly right on ''Gimme Fiction" than it has been with past records, largely because ''Moonlight" was so good and so well received.

 A solo Spoon [RockAthens.com]
Though Daniel jokingly refers to himself as sounding like an old man, this new phase of maturity is paying off by resulting in more solildy constructed material for the band.
Daniel is starting out on a solo tour soon and will play a show in Athens next week.
Daniel joins Bright Eyes (who hail from Omaha, Neb., and boast local musician Andy LeMaster as a member) on this tour, and the pairing is a reunion of old friends.

 Splendid: Features: Spoon
Britt Daniel: Well, we were doing some shows right after we got dropped from Elektra, and the guy who was our acting tour manager had a way with words and just kind of out of the blue said, "Oh, the agony of LaFitte," and you know, that was the guy's name, LaFitte.
Britt Daniel: I already had the chords and the melody, and it was originally just a very flat doo-doo-doo-doo beat, but then I started playing it on the upbeats on the record and that's when I wanted to play along with a drum machine or some kind of beat.
Britt Daniel: We were shooting for it to be a disco song.

 Music: Drake Tungsten and His Boy Skellington
Yet Daniel and Eno could at least take comfort in one thing: Spoon had made a major leap in the music industry arc of becoming a viable recording venture, going from local artists putting out their own product to national league hopefuls on a marquee indie with major distribution.
Britt Daniel is convinced that Elektra president Sylvia Rhone's decision to drop Spoon, after she had personally promised Daniel his band wouldn't get dropped if Laffitte walked the plank, is somehow his fault.
Daniel looks depressed though he swears he's not; he says his friends are concerned.

 I Hate The Kids :: Los Angeles Music Column by Han Q Duong: Britt Daniel @ Spaceland
Daniel was most effective when he was playing up his brooding sexiness with songs like "Everything Hits at Once" and "Anything You Want," both of which got a solid swoon going on in the audience.
Daniel also dipped back a little further and played a few songs from "Series of Sneaks," including a snappy version of "Car Radio" that sounded like the bastard love child of the Cars and the Replacements.
Daniel's performance was good enough to keep people interested, but I don't think it was dynamic enough to convert anyone.

All the while, Daniel is not doing a good job of holding up his end of the conversation, or covering up that fact.
See, Daniel was supposed to be a star by now, or at the very least, big enough to guest host his own hour on MTV2 with Jancee Dunn.
Daniel's even got the same knife wounds from life and love that fueled so much of Costello's early material.

 Tucson Weekly : Music : Britt Alone
Our first observation was that Britt Daniel may be vying for the appellation "The Man in Black," now that Johnny Cash is gone.
Daniel took the stage armed with only an acoustic guitar and some kind of crazy Radio Raheem-style "ghetto blaster" (although in the Red-Eyed Fly's rocky, partially outdoor layout, it was more of a "grotto blaster").
But this was Britt's show, and he proved it without resorting to grandstanding antics like claiming, "Spoon's not gonna play," and then having them play anyway.

The annual celebration of pop television is buzzing on the mouths of a few, buzzing especially, for a brief moment, on the lips of Britt Daniel, lead singer/songwriter for Austin-based indie pop band Spoon.
It helps that Daniel and the band are a tad more ambitious than the typical "indie rock" group, a label Daniel doesn't really feel at home with despite his band's arbitrary place under the title.

On Spoon's latest, Kill the Moonlight, bandleader Britt Daniel may be singing some downbeat lyrics some of the time, but what I hear are good times — and a strong spirit.
In a band where he is the sole guitarist, Daniel's spartan approach utilizes chords and occasional short exuberant riffs.
As I got used to the latest evolution of the Spoon sound, I realized that there were guitars on the album, just not on all the songs, and for the most part used with more subtlety.
