Wasn?t crazy about the first LP, but the singles on this were fantastic, and the album blew me away

When did mr Yorke and company become so bland?
They barely create distinguishable hooks within
this album. The album is a complete formless and
forced mess which doesn't offer anything
memorable.

Really solid release that culminates with
Bending Hectic exploding. Surpirsingly solid
to jam whenever and wherever. Wait for it to
unfolfd and give it the fair chance.

I know the Radiohead parallels are lazy reviewing but dammit this is what "A Moon Shaped Pool" should have been.

Just like the debut album from Thom York?s new band The Smile, ?Wall of Eyes? comes across as a somewhat diminished iteration of what many of us Radiohead fans have come to love. The sophomore album unmistakably channels a more experimental vibe, but with the heavy underpinnings of ?In Rainbows.? While this could be exciting in many ways, it's challenging not to be somewhat distracted by that sensation. Despite this, there are elements and aspects that I genuinely enjoy, such as the experimental drone closer in "Under Our Pillows" or even the pop melodies reminiscent of Father John Misty in "Friend of a Friend." However, I struggle to discern a distinct vision beyond Thom Yorke playing Radiohead-esque music without embodying the essence of Radiohead, which, frankly, is a source of annoyance for me.

As with 2022's A Light For Attracting Attention, The Smile's sophomore effort sees the Radiobois make up most of the soundscape while drummer Tom Skinner (very deftly) accompanies them without taking (being given?) the lead he deserves. Good arty rock with cool compositions though, I just can't help but wish for more explosiveness given whose hitting those toms.
