Silversun PickupsSilversun Pickups
I first heard Silversun Pickups a year ago on WOXY radio and fell in love. I got the chance to see them in a mostly empty venue during CMJ last year in NYC. I was easily the only crazed, rockin' out fan there but I had a complete blast. Their Pikul EP from last year topped my best of '05 list. This years Carnavas doesn't disappoint either.
Here's the video for "Kissing Families" (Pikul EP, 2005)
Here's hoping that being in a VW Commercial isn't the beginning of a corporate overdose. Tour dates after the jump!
