What did I listen to last week? No need to guess. Here’s the rundown, with, as always, two-word reviews.
Black Tusk: Set The Dial – raging metal
The Dark Knight OST – eerily effective
Drive OST – synthy goodness
Feist: Metals – boring letdown
Genesis: Abacab – Collins overload
The Go! Team: Proof of Youth – energeic noise
Queensryche: Dedicated to Chaos – wrong turn
Radiohead: King of Limbs – needs guitar
RTZ: Return to Zero – lesser Boston
The Smithereens: 11 – starts strong
Pete Townshend: All The Best Cowboys Have Chinese Eyes - interesting mess
Thunder Express: Republic Disgrace – oddly restrained
Velvet Crush: Soft Sounds – restrained excellence
