Stick Figure Neighbourhood is the debut studio album by Canadian new wave band Spoons, released 1981 by Ready Records. It received some airplay, and went to the top of the Canadian University radio charts[4][5] (specifically with songs "Conventional Beliefs" and "Red Light"), but it was their next studio album, Arias & Symphonies (1982) – and its best known single, "Nova Heart" – that were to bring them to prominence.
This album was recorded by Daniel Lanois at the Grant Avenue Studios in Hamilton, Ontario. Its liner notes collectively thank fellow contemporary Toronto bands The Diodes, Martha and the Muffins, and concert promoter Gary Cormier of "The Garys".[6]
As Gordon Deppe mentions in his liner notes for greatest hits album Collectible Spoons (1994), this collection of songs "is a bit rough around the edges, but there are things on it that [are] still very interesting and perplexing."
