What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our Phil feeling ecstatic.

I suspect you may have heard of some duffer called Thom Yorke. He of little known band called Radiohead. Well he's done that thing all musicians seem to inherently want to do .... the solo project. They all want it. Give 'em an ounce of success and they all want to see if they can make it on their own. Me.... I play the drums and even I want to do a solo album. It's true! But he's not leaving Radiohead apparently so all is well... me being a bit of an obsessive I can sleep easy again. So what's this Eraser album like then? Initially the cynical side of me listened to it and heard a load Kid A soundalikes and rejects but after a number of listens I decided it's a bit of a work of genius. We had to download a copy online (dodgily) cos XL didn't send us a promo copy and I wanted to give it a fair old listen before I reviewed it. Bit cagey old Xl sometimes.... So the album comprises of electronics which  have a minimal bedroomy feel to 'em.  You can't help but think you're listening to a new Radiohead album when you listen to this. Mainly cos of Thom's voice like. There's some uplifting tunes on there and some misery as well though not quite as much wrist slashery as you get with a Radiohead record. Lovely lovely lovely...

About the humble CD:

The CD is essentially a small portable face mirror which has an extra feature of being able to play music (through a thing known as a CD player). These CD's are a modern invention hence them being all shiny and digital. They can hold about 80 minutes of music and apparently are indestructible as you can smear jam on them and they still play (not as nourishing as toast mind you but when you're hungry.....). They sound crystal clear and are tiny convenient things. They lack the charm and warmth of their old analogue counterparts but their portability, convenience and ease of being duplicated make them a perfect thing of a thing for most folks. Jewel cases are the worst thing ever though and they really need to stop.

'why me, why me...'
