My review of 'In Rainbows'

prole-art-threat [Edit] [Delete] 23:22, 10 October '07

A bit tinny isn't it. Not claustophobic enough sadly but 7 out of ten for the good songs and All I need has a nice analogue keyboard on it and is more than an Air song in title (am I allowed to say that)? Reckoner has nice Roy Budd-esque drums but then glazes over somewhat, and House of Cards would make a good song for an advert for Bounty. Jigsaw if like Paranoid Android, but walking back at dawn after an unexpected night in the sack with a girl you thought 'no chance' about as you sulked around the cigarette machine. I like it overall but I think the overall sound is of an album not quite finished (am I allowed to say that, geeks?)

There's more to come. However their autechre drum bits just sound like dave bowie doing D&B ten years ago. Stop it.
