Thom Yorke himself has said that he can't stand the sound of his own voice. Up until Kid A he tried and tried to sing in a way that would mask, even slightly, the stinging pitch in his vocals (much in the same way he tried to hide his lazy eye). I think after the success of OK Computer, the band went through a bit of a catharsis and I think they're a better band because of it.

In terms of vocals? Yeah I can see that. Maybe because he had less of a role to fill as 'lead singer' that he relaxed a bit and did less crooning. The Eraser is a great album though.
