‘Telephono’ and the ‘Soft Effects’ EP will be the first reissues in the ‘Slay On Cue’ campaign on July 24. The band’s next three LPs in chronological order will then be reissued on August 14, before ‘Gimme Fiction’, ‘Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga’ and ‘Transference’ are released on September 11.

Today’s reissue announcement (June 29) has been accompanied by the restored and remastered video for ‘Small Stakes’, which is described by frontman Britt Daniel as “a little glimpse into life in the studio in 2002 during the recording of ‘Kill The Moonlight’, filmed by our friend Peter Simonite.”

Spoon will also release the limited fan-curated compilation LP ‘All The Weird Kids Up Front (Mas Rolas Chidas)’ on August 29 for Record Store Day in North America.







Last year saw Spoon deliver a cover of the John Lennon song ‘Isolation’ during their guest appearance on The Howard Stern Show.
