New Thom Yorke Album
I realize this isn't archaeology or science related, but it is "nerd" related and can pass as culture, so I'll post it. The musical genius of my generation will release his first solo album on XL Records next week, called The Eraser. Radiohead's music practically defined my late highschool and college years and some of my best memories have been at the two shows I attented (or tried to attend, the one in VA was flooded out). I snagged a leaked copy from the internet, and its safe to say its on track to be one of my top albums of the year. The Eraser has lots of typical-Radiohead electronic bips and beeps but also a very mellow, melodic album that definitely stands on its own. Hopefully Thom will go on a solo tour so I can have an excuse to escape Tampa...
