“Chateau Blues” is Spoon doing what Spoon does best: minimal grooves that somehow feel massive. The track swings between restraint and explosion, the kind of sonic architecture that makes you lean in closer, only to get knocked back when the chorus hits.
Britt Daniel has never been about flash; he’s about precision. Spoon keeps proving they can reinvent themselves with every album while staying unmistakably themselves. “Chateau Blues” fits right into that lineage — another polished gem with teeth.
