LA-based alternative band Silversun Pickups has been popular on the alt rock scene since their debut full-length album in 2006. They have a new album coming out on February 6, "Tenterhooks," produced by the legendary Butch Vig. Our song choice today is a track from that album, "Long Gone," released last Thursday. Enjoy.
Indulge us as we continue to visit the blog's "Weekend Music/ Song" attic to relive some musical joys from years past -- some well known, others not -- that we liked then and now.
Last week, the theme was female artists. Today, we're going to go with a random, eclectic collection of groups, with the date and the link to when it originally appeared in Hackwhackers. Hope you enjoy.

"Empty Nest" is the latest release from LA alt rock band Silversun Pickups' 2022 album "Physical Thrills." (The album was produced by Butch Vig, who's produced albums by Garbage -- fellow Wisconsinites -- and Nirvana.) We've featured them several times in recent years because they consistently put out quality music. We hope you enjoy too.
It's been a few years since we featured Silversun Pickups, the four member band from Los Angeles, but they have a new album out this month, "Physical Thrills," and some new releases, including our song for today, "Alone On A Hill," featuring singer Nikki Monninger. Enjoy.
