Spymob
Sitting Around Keeping Score
Ruthless Records
April 6, 2004

Spymob have been quietly inescapable for the past two years. As the backing band for Neptunes side project, N.E.R.D., they have been an integral part of a sound that has captivated critics and fans alike.
Spymobıs work to N.E.R.D.ıs breakthrough album didnıt go unnoticed:
"Credit has got to go to (Spymob bassist) Christian Twigg and (Spymob drummer) Eric Fawcett for supplying Search with dexterous, downright joyful bass and drums."
Rolling Stone
Spymobıs adeptness and skill is what first attracted The Neptuneıs. "They remind me of the music I grew up with," says Pharell Williams. "like Steely Dan crossed with the Meters and Prince and it just blew me away." The bandıs ability to move effortlessly between classic soul, jazz, and rock without compromising any of the energy and excitement is all over their debut, Sitting Around Keeping Score, a genre-busting work bubbling over with the warmth and richness of the vintage instruments used to create it.
Spymob have appeared on the late Show with David letterman, and have shared the stage with everyone from David Bowie to Jay-Z. Sitting Around Keeping Score is the next step in an unusual and fertile career. Be sure to check them out tomorrow night (3.31) on Last Call With Carson Daly
