Summary: Now We Know Yorke's True Influence In Radiohead
Comment: Spectacular solo effort! It's too bad Yorke is cursed from having been capable of albums that he'll probably never live up to again -namely O.K. Computer and perhaps The Bends. The songs Harrowdown Hill, Analyse and Black Swan are incredible. If you have enjoyed Radiohead's more electronic albums such as Kid A or Amnesiac then you should find a huge appriciation for The Eraser.
Customer Rating:
Summary: excellent album!
Comment: This album is one of the best albums I've heard overall lately! When I listen to this record, I often forget its not Radiohead. When Thom Yorke says its definitely just a side project, and not a "solo" album, that's a very valid statement. It does sound more like a side project. Solo albums, at least in my experience, always seem to sound a lot different than the artist's material with the band. This album to me, seems like songs that Thom didn't want to put on a Radiohead album, so he just put them on The Eraser. Since it was technically only him, it automatically receives the label "solo album". Not that it isn't a solo album, it just sounds so much like a Radiohead record to me. As in the other reviews, I warn you, if you don't like electronic music or electronica, I don't think this album is for you nor most Radiohead after OK Computer. I happen to like a lot of music and be open to a lot of music, but if you only like certain things or you hate electronica, you probably won't like this record. For most people and Radiohead fans, I say give this a try! It is one of my favorites now!

Summary: Short, but excellent
Comment: I've been a fan of Radioheads and am entranced by Thom's singing style. Theses songs are impossible to sit still to, you feel their great beats and are forced to move to them, whether that be dancing or working out. I love this disc.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Excelent Album
Comment: This album is great, maybe better than great, and you can't beat the full sound that a record provides. I was satisfied with my purchase because the pressing was a 28 gram record with the fabulous re worked edge, the only way the sound quality could improve now is if it was two 12" 45's like the in rainbows double record set. I was only disappointed by one aspect of the album art; I was expecting the record to fold out into a panoramic of the art (Like on the CD case, only much larger), it doesn't, but that hasn't stopped me from listening repeatedly.

Summary: Great deal.
Comment: I am very pleased with my purchase. The CD arrived in great condition as described by the seller.
