Spoon Explain Illuminati-Inspired Album Cover at ACL Fest 2014

Hometown heroes Spoon played an exceptional set at Austin City Limits Festival's first weekend, and it's not like they're unfamiliar with the adoring crowds at Zilker Park. 

"[We've played it] every record other than Gimme Fiction!" laughs Spoon's Britt Daniel before pointing out that 2014 marks the band's fourth year at the fest.

They kept their streak alive this year with songs from They Want My Soul standing out in the set list. Their most recent album, which dropped in August, embraces all of the straightforward and sultry rock verve you've come to expect from the Austinites. They went above and beyond with They Want My Soul on every level, but perfecting its artwork in particular was a challenging and rewarding process that netted some cool and creepy images, including the simple and bold art for its cover.
