Silversun Pickups Coming To Cain's

L.A.-based Silversun Pickups will be playing Cain's Ballroom Tuesday night as part of their extended U.S. tour.

Their first album, Carnavas, was released in 2006. Two of album's four singles - "Lazy Eye" and "Well Thought Out Twinkies," would break the top 10 of the Billboard Modern Rock charts.

"Lazy Eye" is features on Guitar Hero: World Tour and "Well Thought Out Twinkies" is featured in the Tony Hawk video game Proving Ground. 

Their second album, Swoon, was released earlier this summer.
