To be in a band you have to be close — but perhaps Keane was too close back in the day. While guitars have been minimally present even in their early work, their appearance in the final mix has always been slight, and while Chaplin has stepped up as an almost full-time guitarist in the band, that instrument is never featured as prominently as to be more than barely noticed. He flew home, spoke to his dad, and checked himself into the Priory. I think he had some mental health problems, but ten or 12 years ago he got a bunch of songs written and released this really beautiful album. Click to subscribe to our I-M Newsletter.
