Radio Kaos
Things were never the same for rock auteur Roger Waters after he split  from Pink Floyd in the early '80s. While Floyd has soldiered on as a dumber, but  still popular version of its old self, Waters has seen his own creative vision  left mostly unrealized. Like his other solo projects,Radio K.A.O.S.too  often falls flat without the hypnotic musical passages he enjoyed with Floyd.  Not helping are the album's thin electronic sounds that haven't aged well since  its 1987 release.Radio K.A.O.S.tells the quasi-sci-fi tale of a boy  "vegetable" who can recieve radio waves in his head. Along the way,  Waters attacks Reagan, Thatcher, nuclear war, commercial radio, and all the  usual suspects.--Steve Appleford
