Silversun Pickups are best known for their 2007 break out single “Lazy Eye,” but they do have a sophomore album that came out earlier this year, Swoon, which features today’s Spotlight song, “Substitution”. I previously posted the video for the song here on grantruby.com, check it out here.
Response to the song was good, if not qualified. Karma called and asked if it was the same singer. Yes, it is. And she responded by saying, “I like the song anyway. I dig it.” Kim called in and said that after “Lazy Eye,” she has such a high bar for this band that she wishes every song were better, but did concede that she “really liked it, actually.” Texts were even more positive. Angie wrote, “I liked it a lot!” And an anonymous listener said, “Great song”.
If you missed today’s Spotlight, check out the video. You can find Silversun Pickups on MySpace, Facebook, Twitter and their official website.
