Details: Amazon.ca Six By Seven have been annoyed before by comparisons to Radiohead, and doubtless will be again. However, it is possible that The Closer You Get, their second album, may come to be seen to have the same relationship to their 1998 debut The Things We Make asThe Bends does to Radiohead's nervous and patchy opening shot Pablo Honey. The Closer You Get is an assured, confident and complete record, and sounds very much like the fruition of the fearsome promise that Six By Seven have been exhibiting for some time. Though the mood of the album hardly deviates from beginning to end--this is music as sombre, serious and intense as the shadow-laden cover portrait--Six By Seven find a commendable number of shades within the darkness. "Sawn-Off Metallica T-Shirt" and "England And A Broken Radio" more than live up to the literate biliousness of their titles, and "New Year" is a fine redemptive ballad. --Andrew Mueller
