Spotle Answer for September 29, 2026 — Hints & Answer

September 29, 2026 Spotle answer: The Neighbourhood

Spotle puzzle #1614 went live Tuesday, September 29, 2026. The three hints moved from broad to personal — Indie Rock, then Fans also like Arctic Monkeys, and finally Last on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2014 — the kind of progression that ends most debates. If you named The Neighbourhood off the first clue alone, that's a two-guess round; if you burned all three, you're in good company.

Why this artist fits

The Neighbourhood checks every box the game gave: Indie Rock / Fans also like Arctic Monkeys / Last on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2014. Spotle compares attributes across debut era, genre, awards and chart history, so the clues above are drawn straight from the artist's actual record — no trick wording, no red herrings.
