Hank Kingsley really should be ashamed of himself.

The relative low-stakes compared to modern films is a big reason why is has so much tension and immediacy - just a person hanging on for dear life, and the scene really milks the fear and dread of the situation; first responders are already there, but they're helpless to do anything. And the out-of-control helicopter

Binaural's biggest problem was that several terrific songs were left off for some reason, and the song sequence doesn't make any sense. "In The Moonlight" is one of my all-time-favorites, and "Sad," "Fatal," and "Education" should have been on as well. "Evacuation" should have been left off (probably my least

Actually, all of their albums are full of guitar work - it just doesn't sound like a guitar. For instance, "Treefingers" is an Ed O'Brien improv that Thom edited on his laptop.

I saw them on the tours for Hail To The Thief, In Rainbows, and The King Of Limbs, and the TKOL show was my favorite. Even the great From The Basement episode only hinted at just how heavy that material could sound - Ed's guitar stabs during "Bloom" were shaking the floor.

Personally, I think Ed is the band's secret weapon - he's my favorite one to watch when I've seen them live (3 times now) because I'm always surprised by which sounds belong to him. The guy coaxes an amazing array of sounds from his instrument.

Ed does tons of stuff that you don't realize is him until you watch them live. He coaxes so many non-guitar sounds out of his guitar that it's astonishing to watch.

Is the primary over?

"Downward Is Heavenward" is totally one of the best albums of the 90's.
