Bought this album yesterday.
Have only listened to the first 3 songs so far.
Quite a bit of 'Hail..' in there too.
Thom needs to really branch out in his vocals a bit more. I absolutely love the sound of his voice and the way he sings etc BUT no matter WHO'S song he sings on (for example. with PJ Harvey "This Mess We're In") it just ends up sounding like a Radiohead song.
I'm not entirely sure why he had to go solo to make this record.
He could have just gone to the other guys in the band "Right! My turn to write!"
I think I'll really like this album. I love it so far.
I have the choice of being constantly active and happy or introspectively passive and sad. Or I can go mad by ricocheting in between. - Sylvia Plath
