Thom Yorke - The Eraser

I've had this disc for a couple of days now and I'm loving it. Yorke's vocals were never so pure, devoid of any reverb or echo stuff we've come to hear him on the last few Radiohead albums. The music consists of synthetic arrangements and pulsating beats; the lyrics are amazing as always.

What's more, the album gets better with each spin. Has anyone else heard it? What are your thoughts?

well I couldn't very well list the whole album, which I almost listed like 2/3 the first time around ... that kind've defeats the purpose... great track, but yeah I prefer the listed tracks over it... it seems most reviews/discussions always list HH as the best/one of the best on the album and I never really understood what made it standout so much from the other tracks
