He's pretty big in Aus for some odd reason, I saw him live in February and it was really great. He does have a pretty voice.

I'm not in the band so I won't take offense.

Very overlooked I agree. Got into it about a year and a half ago, really liked the new album.

If you're posting in the music forums make sure to be thoughtful and expressive, if you're posting in the lounge ask yourself "is this something that adds to the conversation?" It's important to remember that a lot of people use each thread. You're probably not as funny or clever as you think, I know I'm not.

I think it's his second best album behind Odelay.

A lot of people are luke-warm on it though.

Somewhere in the middle

Mellow Gold, Mutations, Midnight Vultures, Odelay and Modern Guilt are the other ones I like, Guero is 3rd-6th probably. Didn't like The Information or Sea Change.

Still have them all though, unless there are more I am unaware of
