That ripe popping sound, friends, is the noise of 5,000 blog-Gollums ejaculating simultaneously. Three of the indiest bands in history—Spoon, Wolf Parade, and New Bomb Turks—have all contributed members to a supergroup, meaning they're only half of Xiu Xiu away from the indie equivalent of cold fission. Whatever: this remains some of the best electro-pop messing about you'll hear all year—easily as good as any of their respective acts, kind of like when The Travelling Wilburys were better than The Beatles, Dylan, and ELO put together.
