Silversun Pickups Neck Of The Woods Debuts at #6 on Billboard Top 200

We are thrilled to announce Silversun Pickups third album Neck Of The Woods debuted at #6 on the Billboard Top 200 – the highest charting debut in Silversun Pickups & Dangerbird Records history.

USA Today gave Neck of the Woods three out of four stars calling the album “sharp,” and noting its “shades of electronica” and “muscular riffs,” while Paste heralded the band’s third studio record as “the best mainstream rock album of the year.” The Los Angeles Times likewise praised Neck of the Woods, awarding it three out of four stars, noting “its allusions all nod to the best stuff from a time when rock acts could be experimental, heavy and platinum-selling at once.”

The band will be touring throughout 2012 and 2013, including summer festival dates, listed below.

5/28 – Sasquatch Festival – George, WA
6/1 – Santa Barbara Bowl – Santa Barbara, CA
