Hi guys!

A bit too much "dumdumdumdumdumdumdadadumdadumdumdumdum -waaaaaaiiiiiooooomaaaompf!-dumdumdadumdadadumdumdidadumdumdudmdum...."

The bass is sweet.

I am. Kid A is my favorite Radiohead album, clearly superior to OK Computer, and one of my favorite electronic albums.

I agree, although I don't think someone should be flamed for their opinion. The only exception is giving H to He one star. Wink

That and Godbluff are excellent, but Pawn Hears is total sh*t. I do not get what people see in it.

Personally, I don't understand what people see in it that makes it so bad. How can you listen to a song like "Man-Erg" and say it has no musical value?

"Waaaaiiiiooooomaaaompf" is part of the lyrics. Just to be clear.

Umm, they see good music. Smile

I'll listen to it now.

I understood that. It didn't bother me, especially after Koenjihyakkei.

Interesting Robert. I guess Pawn Hearts reminds me of the edgier RPI cuisines...so I took to it with only minimal effort. Not love at first site, but I enjoy it.

...that moment you realize you like "Mob Rules" better than "Heaven and Hell"

That's odd, because it barely made 3 stars for me Wink

Well, as I mentioned in my review, "Man-Erg" is the best thing on the album. Not bad.

Let's make things clear

Still Life - 5 stars

Pawn Hearts - 4.5 stars

Godbluff - 4 stars

Have you listened to the song "Theme One," Robert? It's a bonus track on Pawn Hearts, and it's very tight and upbeat. And if Hammill's vocals bug you, it's an instrumental.

I do not have bonus tracks, so no.

Also, regarding Hammill, no I do not like him.

However, he has grown on me in the context of his band, and I quite like some of VdGG's albums because of (and not in spite of) his voice.
