Thom Yorke of Radiohead, but without.

What? Yes, I speak of who I typed in the subject line. For those who have not heard his new solo album titled: 'The Eraser,' its a definite must.

Glitchy, sour, twitchy, brooding, imperfect, minimalistic and beautifully experimental.

I have always loved Radiohead, but if Thom keeps on putting out solo albums like these, I can honestly do without the full piece band.

Listen to audio clips here

Feels like hail to the thief, at times.

The only thing that is missing is a few of johnny's amazing lush moments, but this one is pretty good. This album is growing on me quite a bit.

PS - those clips don't do it justice.
and I think cymbal rush is my fave right now

I agree. I feel in love at first listen and haven't looked back.

Excellent work, start to finish.

Yeah, that and some Kid A. It's not overbearingly the case or anything, just subtley so. I think a lot of it is that Thom's vocals have summoned up a more mature sound since hail to the thief and it's present here too.

Can't wait to hear what the next radiohead album will be. A friend had told me Thom did this to get these bits "out of his system" - so who knows what to expect!

interesting to say the least, but nothing can come close to OK Computer in my opinion...

I can see how this could quickly turn into a big band nerd debate

Kid A and Amnesiac were where I started caring, I wasn't too much into any of the previous albums - OK computer included. Hail To The Thief I didn't really dig at first but man did it ever grow on me. Same with this new album by Thom.
