Static in Transmission is the eighth studio album by the Canadian new wave band Spoons.

Released in early 2011 on CD and iTunes, it is their first album of new material in 23 years since 1988's Vertigo Tango.

After playing the new song "Imperfekt" live at a 2010 concert in Toronto, the band was approached by Universal music to record an album of all new material.

The cover for the CD features a picture of Sandy Horne and Gordon Deppe and numerous symbols and signs including Morse code, circuit diagrams and even hieroglyphics.

Fans who purchased the album were challenged to find secret codes that would unlock two additional bonus downloads on the band's official website.
