the eraser


Picked up Thom Yorke's The Eraser today and it's good -- really good. I'm sure the detractors will say it's a self-indulgent, masturbatory work of beeps and blips. Whatever. The album is masterfully textured with assistance from Radiohead's right-hand man Nigel Godrich.
An eerie soundtrack to WWIII, The Eraser transports the listener to the edge of a cliff.
And there's no turning back.

Shalom,
mc

Yes, I was immediately impressed by this recording. I was a bit hesitant when I threw it in (I'm always a bit leary of solo side projects), but this was very, very good. Tracks 2, 8, and especially #9 stand out to me.
