It will end in tears and I won't be sorry

Philip Selway, best known as Radiohead's drummer, has a new album, Weatherhouse, coming out in October. Here's the single It Will End In Tears.

I quite like it. It's the kind of song I'd like to listen to after a long day of work, feeling accomplished and happy. Regardless of the lyrics, the song has got this tranquil feeling to it, like saying "I'm moving on and that's pretty great". Does that make any sense?

We could spend a lifetime in a weatherhouse

Drowned in Angry Beats

This morning I put Vessel's new album on my playlist, after reading reviews stating "Fans of Massive Attack will like this album", which obviously got my hopes up high in the skies. But after the first listen of the album, I was not impressed.

So this afternoon I gave it another try and it sounds better when I'm not expecting a Massive Attack sound. Not too bad. Anima (below) is in fact really good. Quite heavy and uneasy music I'd say. A bit angry maybe. Kin to Coal is my favorite track on the album.

"What does 'Englishness' in music really mean?" is the question Vessel is apparently trying to answer with this album.
