The Eraser is a triumph.
-
Difficult, certainly, but not without its charms.
-
He's well able to marry insightful lyrics and memorable melody to a genre not always associated with such qualities.
-
The results are competent, if unsurprising.

UrbPerhaps an EP would have better-suited Yorke's solo aspirations. [Jul/Aug 2006, p.115]
-
Slight, but carrying a fair amount of weight, The Eraser isn’t a masterpiece, but it’s much more than solo-project divergence.
-
If anything, The Eraser more than proves that Yorke, no matter how intriguing or forward-thinking his ideas, needs the democracy of Radiohead to ground his more angular artistic impulses.
