    SSP are definitely heavily influenced by the Smashing Pumpkins, who were influenced by the Pixies, who also inspired Nirvana's sound.
    Other post punk / new wave / alt bands worth a listen are: Sisters of Mercy, The Cult, Jane's Addiction, The Cure, REM (first 7 albums), U2 (first 4 albums), The Sound, Joy Division, New Order, Screaming Trees, Garbage, Happy Mondays, The Call, The Verve, The Alarm, The Replacements, The The, Talk Talk, ... it goes on for days. The late 70s to early 90s was an incredible era for music.

      ​@@chrisross-fd3fo Right on. Lanegan's voice was phenomenal. I also like his solo work. Should also mention Tad here.
      Agreed on the Pumpkins. There's a 1988 recording called from the Pulse that's pretty fascinating - very goth / new wave and interesting to see how they rapidly evolved into whatever they were. This setlist was also played in the Cabaret Metro where they kicked off that the same year.
      People say "good music is still being made" which is true, but nothing has compared to these powerhouse bands that made several incredible ALBUMS over a span of 10-20 years.

    So glad to fond someone new reacting to my favor band! Chris is an amazing drummer and Nikki an amazing bassist, both of their talents are on full display in the song "Panic Switch", and same goes for "Simpatico" imo. Their break out hit was "Lazy Eye". You mention drinking, Silversun is a liquor/convience store they would frequent while working on music, hence the name. And singer Brian met bassist Nikki when he caught her stealing an adult beverage off the drink cart on the plane and the rest is history. Nikki was also the keyboardist in drummer Chris' band The Crooners, predating Silversun. And keyboardist Joe is, well just Joe. I don't really have a backstory to offer for him, other than he is a really good dude.

    This band has made music that has given me so many sweet memories of my kids when they were little. I’d put their Carnavas album on the turn table and my 8 & 4 year old son & daughter would run around and dance in the family room singing along and having so much fun together. So many sweet memories of my kids. They are 26 & 22 now and we all still listen to Silversun Pickups all the time. They are amazing. You should check out The Bravery. I think you’d really like their song An Honest Mistake. It’s another fantastic song. Thanks for sharing your first experience with this band, with us, Polo😊

    One of Silversun Pickups biggest influences is Smashing Pumpkins. You can hear the influence in songs like 1979, Bullet with Butterfly Wings, Today, Rocket and Tonight, Tonight, but a great place to start is Cherub Rock. If you like Cherub Rock, you'll like Smashing Pumpkins.

    You should check out 'Lazy Eye'! Probably my favourite song from them!

    These guys are very good, but they also clearly took huge amounts of inspiration from an older and more prolific band, the Smashing Pumpkins, right down to choosing a reminiscent name. This band here has several great songs, but Pumpkins has dozens of them. Doesn't have to be either/or, but the Pumpkins rabbit hole is much deeper and more rewarding, and is a purer source of the type of magic in this song.

    wow this is new, love it brother! next up try some Arcade Fire, MGMT, Pratts n Pain, Jane's Addiction, or Them Crooked Vultures. You won't be disappointed. Old school try some Gerry Rafferty, Al Stewart or even Fleetwood Mac!!!
