The Songbook: Silversun Pickups

[@silversunpickups]

We 💖 you, Gibson! Thanks for having us 🤩

[@rguitar78]

SO MUCH THIS!!!!! For someone who's been in love with their sound for the last 15+ years, I salute you both for all you have given us.

[@VegasFinds777]

Silversun Pickups are incredible, and incredibly under-rated. If you haven't spent time intricately embracing their records, you're missing out!

[@eriklarson9137]

Really? Who rated them?

[@VegasFinds777]

@@eriklarson9137 I think you can do better, Erik.

They're not underrated, they just never sold out! True creativity and a sound out-of-this-world! I recommend watching them live. There's magic in between the drums in the notes! 🎶 🪄🎶

[@SG-mk3pm]

This band is so special. Have been listening to their music for almost half of my life, absolutely love them.

[@ghostknifeisland]

Kinda forgot about this band for a sec. Hyped to know they’re still rockin! Now I’m going down a KZbin wormhole of all their more recent stuff!

[@vanhalenbr]

I dont get how Nicky is not so comfortable singing she is amazing!!!!

[@djuengst2000]

Amazing! I love it. Thank you everyone who put this together. SSPU acoustic sets are my favorite. I really like the whole band but there is something raw and beautiful about these ones. Mix sounds great as well😊

[@patricstandley]

Nikki during Alone on a Hill is mezmerizing!

[@dangolguitartech]

Very nice… Thanks, Gibson.

[@creeping_deth2761]

ONE OF MY FAVORITE BANDS OMG

[@shagmanjackson220]

Alone on a hill ♥

[@tonyrodriguez2943]

Silversun Pickups rules 🎸🎸🤘🏻🤘🏻.

[@DrJeebles]

This is one of those bands I remember hearing back in 2006 and thinking I should check them out. Then I completely forgot about them. A few years back I bought Carnavas and cannot believe how much I love this band. I just keep buying albums and loving them. Better late than never.

[@cucamongaduke3600]

“…into a speak and spell” I almost spit out my coffee 😂 I hope this band makes music for another 100 years!

[@rareform6747]

There voices sound great together .

[@AshleyOffset]

We were so excited to be able to see them live earlier this year! What a show!

[@ScottWiggen]

The whole album is fire! X & Joe & Brian & Nikki especially (yay!) I am loving the story/mood mix start to finish - Me? I'm ok, less alone & super prepared with awesome tunes - p.s. getting the Gang of Four feels.

[@ck7250]

Empty Nest sounds great in acoustic!

[@Matt-ft2nn]

Outstanding

[@user-ql1pc7pi9x]

Good band. Worth a listen if you're new to them 👍

[@michaelt1154]

I was so happy to go to my 3rd sspu show in Dallas this year. They just get better. They are just friends making music which resonates❤

[@darkjedifertile]

Alone on a Hill is my new favorite song

[@yuri-yp1jq]

It was good to see this video ;) 🧡💙💜💗

[@krisaustin9189]

Omg so good

[@adamscenna]

Love this ❤

[@stjhnn8592]

wtf after the Sunn O))) rig rundown this came up... happy days!

[@chaz02cs]

Beautiful 🤩

[@mickiventer855]

I've been waiting. Waiting for this moment... All my life... But Gibson didn't include it🤦‍♂️

[@cry2love]

What moment?

[@mickiventer855]

It's a lyric from a song by them - Lazy Eye. Probably one of their most popular songs and it wasn't included in this set.

[@cry2love]

@@mickiventer855 Thank you for the clarification, please do it from the first time next time

[@Cybrdra6on]

The Hummingbird sounds great when properly miked. I guess Gibson understands their own guitars and how to get the best sound through the system. Never heard it sound this good, especially the low range which comes through so well on this. They are always a treat acoustically, and make such a great acoustic duo!

[@andycunningham3303]

This rules! Their mtv unplugged started this precedent where they try to bang out the song acoustic exactly as the full band version. It’s absolutely enviable to not have it be this churning Layla slowed down drivel and im totally here for it. And nice work letting nikki roll with the el capitan

[@MrB33stNg]

I love how there acoustic shows sound like an entire production when it's really just the two of them! It's magical

[@Cybrdra6on]

@@MrB33stNg Yeah, Brian has stated in interviews that he likes to try and play more than one part during the acoustic numbers to make it seem more like the originals.

[@cojohnso80]

SSPU's could sing the phone book and it would be a masterpiece

[@donander1]

I am a fan of theirs but not real familiar with their lesser-known material so this was good. Unfortunately the guitar is too hot in the mix, for me anyway. I have a hard time hearing the bass. I play guitar and bass so I like to hear the bass.

[@Cybrdra6on]

I enjoyed hearing the full range of that guitar for a change. Much of its big sound is usually lost in the mix.

[@darthmiara]

Is the bass epiphone ?

[@djagaming2469]

When did Brian get a tattoo on his arm?

[@AndyFairlie]

But where is the bass in the mix?

[@rexrathtar3893]

This one goes to -1.

[@artprince9163]

I hear the bass without any issues. You may want to check your equipment!

[@djuengst2000]

I got mini tribit speakers and it sounds great
