  1. 8.0 |   DIY

    Has certified his status as an artist in his own right
    Read Review

  2. 8.0 |   The Music

    Weatherhouse is masterful in its manipulation of melancholia without being too heavy-handed
    Read Review

  3. 7.0 |   musicOMH

    There are enough highlights here that make this a very enjoyable, if unvaried, record
    Read Review

  4. 7.0 |   Uncut

    Rich in texture and atmosphere. Print edition only

  5. 7.0 |   Drowned In Sound

    There are enough highs on here for this to be considered a very good, warm record
    Read Review

  6. 7.0 |   Under The Radar

    It really is a confident collection of varied and sometimes truly interesting songs. But does anything here really threaten to shake the long shadow of Radiohead? Perhaps not

  7. 7.0 |   Loud And Quiet

    It lives in the same dark corner as Radiohead’s most haunting work
    Read Review

  8. 7.0 |   NME

    Properly uncovers Selway as a compelling songwriter, and coming just weeks after Thom Yorke’s latest solo effort ‘Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes’ it feels remarkably pertinent
    Read Review

  9. 6.0 |   PopMatters

    A somewhat more confident-sounding album from a songwriter no longer saddled with the weight of first impressions
    Read Review

  10. 6.0 |   Rolling Stone

    The lyrical tone is often foreboding, but Selway's vaporous tenor, which suggests a less paranoid Thom Yorke, is reassuring

  11. 6.0 |   The 405

    Weatherhouse houses its own experiences but could just be listened to as a sub-experience of Radiohead
    Read Review

  12. 6.0 |   The Irish Times

    A succinct, full-sounding 10-song collection
    Read Review

  13. 6.0 |   Q

    Ups his game on second solo. Print edition only

  14. 5.0 |   Consequence Of Sound

    The album is an interesting but probably forgettable footnote in the history of one of the most influential bands of the 21st century

  15. 5.0 |   Crack

    From a new artist on the scene, Weatherhouse might seem like a competent debut with room for real promise; from an artist as well travelled as Selway, it’s a little too predictable in its choices to be really memorable
    Read Review

  16. 5.0 |   Clash

    On the basis of ‘Weatherhouse’, Thom Yorke has little to worry about in terms of inter-band solo competition
