This Beautiful Mess ‎– Falling On Deaf Ears CD

This group of Dutch rockers present you with the best sprawling, ethereal, rock-fused-with-electronic-textures album that Radiohead never made. Falling On Deaf Earssucceeds at this paradigm where others have failed, mainly due to the fact that amidst all of the aural experimentation, there remains a distinct pop sensibility. Besides Radiohead, I also picked out parallels to Elliot, The Flaming Lips, newer Tool, and at times, TBM even evoke the spectre of U2. If you're up for something a little different, yet comfortably familiar, definitely check them out. Oh, and Bruce McCullough won by using the unbeatable power of the Wah pedal.
