    1st album - great
    2nd album - good
    3rd album - complete and utter rubbish

    After that I lost interest. I think he released a solo piano album or something?

    I've only listened to 'I Get Wet' and I really like it. Very uplifting and energetic, if a bit cheesy.

    Damn, that first vid rocks! Love the way he breaks out the make believe drums while still ripping on the piano. Might go and download a few albums now :cool:

    That's a blast from the past. I only ever heard the singles from his first album and while I liked them, they didn't motivate me enough to pick up an album.

    Are you serious? You are talking about 'Close calls with brick walls' as album no. 3 aren't you?

    It sounds like it was recorded in a toilet and half the time it doesn't even sound like him. No catchy songs either.

    Close calls with brick walls was great, not as good as the first but miles ahead of the second album.

    i must have liked Close Calls With Brick Walls more than the others as i still have half of that album on my mac. but not synced :/ also liked The Wolf at the time. i think his records got progressively more preposterous aka better - thought he cut his hair / lost his marbles but he is back to his old self i just noticed on youtube

    didn't like the majority of his debut. found it too generically rock n samey the following albums covered a wider scope of his mad musical vision imo, instead of just rocking out
