The Smile - Cutouts (2024)
Cutouts, The Smile's third album, continues the band’s exploration of experimental rock and electronic textures. Emerging from the same sessions as Wall of Eyes, this album pushes further into jazz-influenced improvisation and angular rhythms. Tracks like "Foreign Spies" and "The Slip" layer haunting synths and percussive beats with Thom Yorke’s ethereal vocals, recalling the intricate, fragmented style of Radiohead's Kid A. The band's interplay between electronic and acoustic elements creates a complex, atmospheric soundscape, both haunting and emotionally rich(Ultimate Classic Rock)(bernardzuel).
