JeremyGJan 4, 200410Undeniable songcraft. The fact that they could make something with the emotional heft of 'Paper Tiger' using such a sparse arrangement is a testament to Spoon's immense talent. Similarly, the other songs on this album prove the old adage 'less is more' to be completely true.

ElliotWOct 13, 200610Ha! Rolling Stone and Spin panned this album. Lesson be learned kiddies, those mags are trash.

BrianG.Aug 23, 200210Spoon finally realize the full potential of their Elvis Costelloesque roots with Kill the Moonlight. Fans of Girls Can Tell should run, not walk to pick this album up.

AmyG.Mar 20, 200510Spare and minimal, yet almost impossibly warm, with solid songwriting and perfect arrangements. Britt Daniel is one of the great all-time rock vocalists.

JosephS.Aug 19, 200210Brilliant follow-up to last year's magnificent 'Girls Can Tell.' Great collection of toe-tappers and ballads. 2002 is shaping up to be a great year in music.

Mar 20, 201110A near flaw-less album. Kill The Moonlight has amazing tracks. Each track has it's own significant sound that gets better with each listen. Britt Daniel has a great voice and it sounds a lot more different than any other Spoon album. The tracks are catchy and some of the synth beats are wonderful. All In All, Kill The Moonlight is an impeccable album. A

MatthewSJun 25, 20039A wonderful collection of catchy, scratchy, minimalist songs that just plain work.

JulianE.Sep 5, 20029I have just bought this - it could be a 10 in no time at all! How can something so minimalist and strutting contain so much feeling and spirit? This latest outburst of rock creativity (strokes, stripes etc) finds its new peak - may it roll on.

DomS.Aug 8, 20039Fans of "Series of Sneaks" could possibly be put off by this disc, as many were in "Girls Can Tell." But they won't. Everything Spoon stands for wretches out of this record in full, bare, stank-filled glory. God bless you, Britt Daniels. Call me.

ralphOct 30, 20059wonderful stuff ...where have these guys been hiding ?

JacquesDMay 26, 20059One of the most elemental and sparse records out there. And what a voice on Daniel. Not post-punk, just plain old rock and roll.
-
-
Feb 1, 20129One of the best pop rock records of the past decade. This was a huge turning point for Spoon commercially and creatively. Kill The Moonlight was Spoon's Kid A.

80Singer-songwriter Britt Daniel's gift for obtuse yet engaging melody is now where it ought to be: up front. [#9, p.155]
-
100Meticulously choppy and frequently free of inherent genre boundaries, it's an askew masterpiece of brains, brawn, heart, and soul.

80Spoon's secret is that this tension is never quite released, the martial beat never breaks down, full rock music never quite kicks in. [Oct 2002, p.120]
