Well, Radiohead just visited Australia and got some rave reviews - despite the lead singer cancelling the last show last night due to "voice hoarseness that could lead to vocal cord damage".
Having read here some suggestions I went and bought "OK computer". Hey, I recognised a few songs as favourites already (paranoid android is one). I was toe tapping on my first listen.
But after listening for a while with speakers I switched to my etymotic 4P canalphones to get that special "ety detail". Well... yuk is the only way I can describe the clarity and detail I got. Very poor is how the recording sounded.
Don't get me wrong. Great music. But this album seems poorly mixed/recorded as far as using the etys goes.
Is there a Radiohead album you would recommend that delivers both their great music and quality sound? Or am I doomed to need a groovaliser to enjoy them?
Cheers,
