Furthermore, discussing it in depth on a review for not their first but third review is rather pointless. Secondly, I just wanted to say that I disagree with you about them singing the "hare krishna" chant more earnestly than someone of George Harrison's spiritual calibre could have. Now, it's not that The Shaky Hands aren't a good band. Quite the contrary. They are a good mediocre band. George Harrison was always leagues beyond what a band like this can accomplish. While what they are doing is good and Let It Die is a good album, it hardly compares with anything Mr. Harrison put out. This includes the brownsnakes he murdered in his toilet after a night of drinking. While not a bad writer, you are over analyzing albums and in doing so, taking away from would could be an honest and informative review. I've never felt that anything you've written about an album accurately describes it once I listen to it. That's all. Have a nice day. I highly doubt the band pulled their name from a song by The Who.
