    Read The Room is genius! One of the best songs to come out of Thom and Jonny (& Tom) in a long time. Instant classic.

    Part 2 reaction coming soon??? To me this works better as an album then their first album. Teleharmonic is in my mind one if the best songs Tom and Johnny have ever written. Stunning and deeply meaningful/moving

    Honestly, Wall of Eyes, the title track, is probably my favourite song of the year. When it released as the first single I actually found it underwhelming! Grew on me massively when the album released.

      That is one thing that the Smile has in common with Radiohead all the songs are growers.

    Man i just saw this, and i am already waiting for the second part... PLEASE PLEASE include the songs "Don't get me started" and "The slip" also songs from this album that were released later on. Bealieve me, they are AWESOME.

    • @ivanalegre

      Bye the way, only "Don't get me started" was oficially released by the band, but you can find Fan Vynil rips videos from "The slip"... that song specifically is so cool.

    I like your abstract description of Radioheads sound ( beautiful and disturbing etc.). Loving the Smile right now. I like the jammy meandering kraut-rocky direction. Similar but still distinct from Radiohead.
    I think you'd really like the band Can (and anyone else here who enjoys when Radiohead/Smile get all hypnotic). 70's psychedelic droney, percussion driven music. I'm certain Radiohead members must be fans. It's missing Radioheads beautiful soaring vocals and melody's, but they have the interesting and delicate grooves. "Future Days" & "Tago Mago" are good places to start. Even though Can didn't use computers or much electronics, it's almost like they invented electronic music / IDM before the technology was available. They're often cited as a large influence on early electronic artists.
    Great for setting a certain background vibe too.

    Really, really like both albums. Many moments on those records I likes as much as Radiohead or even more so. I’ve been saying I think Thom and Jonny are in another golden age of songwriting. New songs they’ve been playing sound awesome too. Really looking forward to LP3!

    Bending Hectic is my favorite song of the decade so far, but I didn’t like the album near as much as A Light for Attracting Attention.

  • @jameshannagan4256

  • @andrewpike1993
    @andrewpike1993 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    For me it’s another great album but not as good as the first one. It’s also a little on the short side. They have several other tracks they’ve been performing live that they could have also included. However this is a minor point. It’s another album that’s at least an 8/10

  • @jameshannagan4256

    Weird place to ask kinda, but are you gonna play and possibly record your playthrough of shadow of the erdtree? It'd be good content for the second channel. I'm excited for it, counting down the days until release.

    • @NightwalkReal
      @NightwalkReal  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I’m thinking of it, I’m not sure how I’d present it though. I suppose an edited video would probably work best, as I’m not really a playthrough type of channel.
      I’ll definitely make some rankings though. I’m so pumped! Playing through all the games again in preparation for this.

      Even though ALFAA has more songs, it feels like WOE has a higher quality to it, as well as a more consistent flow track after track. Don't get me wrong, I loved their previous album, but this one seems like they've figured out the soundscape they want to explore, whereas the previous one was more an amalgamation of ideas put into a single album. Both are fantastic though

    • @_CoasterNinja
      @_CoasterNinja 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Me too, just because it has more songs I really enjoy, but agree with others that Wall Of Eyes feels more consistent song to song and has a more cohesive sound for an album.

    Similar to In Rainbows, the second half is weaker than the first.

    • @KyloWRC
      @KyloWRC 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +7

      HUH. Reckoner, House of Cards, Jigsaw Falling Into Place, Videotape?! If that's weak, idk what would be considered strong lol. Also, this album's second half has Friend of A Friend and Bending Hectic!

    • @halfalligator6518
      @halfalligator6518 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I think In Rainbows is pretty much steady quality right through. There is more energy up front of course. But then Jisaw Falling Into Place just keeps growing on me and probably takes the cake. Reckoner is just beyond beautiful too.

    • @alexisgomez3015
      @alexisgomez3015 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      In my opinion it is a combination of The Eraser, HTTT, Amnesiac, and with bending Hectic a small part of OK Computer

    • @jameshannagan4256
      @jameshannagan4256 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Any record with Jigsaw and Reckoner on it can't be considered weak.
