James

Rather than sounding like a side project, The Smile often feels looser and more rhythmically adventurous than recent Radiohead albums. Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood lean into nervous grooves, wiry guitar lines, and restless momentum throughout the record. “Thin Thing” and “The Smoke” especially showcase the trio’s incredible rhythmic interplay. Tom Skinner’s drumming gives the music unusual elasticity and movement. The album balances anxiety and playfulness better than many late-career art-rock records. It sounds energized rather than burdened by legacy.

I didn't even know this band existed until a couple of weeks ago!! I love Radiohead and this definitely scratches an itch :)

This album is better than I was expecting. If you like Radiohead (I do), you'll probably like this.
