Looking forward to it, but definately not paying 60+ dollars including shipping for an album that won't be here for another while, and I wouldn't pay anything for a download.

Nothing new. If you like Radiohead, you'll enjoy the album; if you're not, your time will be better wasted elsewhere.

Nope - it can't be if they are claiming it as the first, which they are.

I just downloaded the album and I just listened to it…I find it to be quite great. I don’t exactly know where to place it amongst Radiohead’s discography yet, and I almost feel like going through their discography again j. Lotus Flower is a wonderful track, and I really like the opening track Bloom….it seems as if Radiohead are fans of glitch music. Bottom line, this album was very enjoyable and I liked it very much. If you are a fan of Radiohead then you will enjoy this album.

 

A more in-depth and comprehensive review will come in the future. I think I need to listen to this album (and their other albums) a few more times to get a complete picture.

Not as accessible as In Rainbows was for me, might take a few listens to really get into. Sounds good so far though, lots of little sounds here and there to make me appreciate my speakers' quality Big smile
