    ordered this morning. :thumbup:
    +1 same for me. I'm so greedy I don't even want to wait until the 19th to hear it, I want it now!! :lol:
    Amen, I've been checking my preorder every day to see if maybe they decide to release it even earlier, lol.
    I ordered it too. I love the fact that all of us ordered already without even seeing a tracklisting. I guess I just have that much faith in those guys.

    a setlist would mean nothing. No ones heard the songs and so song titles are meaningless. And reallly anyway...

    ITS RaDIOHEAD!!!!!

    To be fair there are a number of new songs that the band played on the In Rainbows tour (such as "Super Collider") and some that Thom has played at solo shows ("The Daily Mail," "Lotus Flower," "Give up the Ghost.") Bootleg recordings are available if you wish to give em' a listen.

    Otherwise I'm totally digging this surprise thing.

    I agree 100%. I don't even know why bands release setlists. :? What's the point, unless you already know some of the songs???

    if you dont get those two get out now!! :lol:

    I love those albums - and loved that radiohead period. Glastonbury 1997 was still potentially the finest show i ever saw from a band. mesmorising headliners, and truely jaw dropping performance - despite OKC not even being out til the following month.

    Anything since that I have not connected with one bit. In fact I have taken a real dislike to. Im not gonna be all critical of it and say its bullshit, because clearly many people love it too, but it a crying shame to me that this band went the way it did. beats, synth, strange vocals, at times its a fuzzy hippy distorted noise with shreaking vocals......I remain totally convinced that if Kid A was their debut they wouldnt have ever been noticed.


    I remember hearing that Glastonbury set on the radio back then, and getting totally blown away by it - discovering the band. I could live without Kid A and Amnesiac (should have made one album with the highlights!) - but I think Hail to the Thief and In Rainbows are both works of genius. In Rainbows...... so glad I have had that album in my life. Looking forward to hearing the new one.

    In Rainbows was definitely an improvement....totally agree, but HTTT was a major miss for me too.

    even so I will definitely be checking out the new release too....Radiohead could turn either way again so who knows where they will go with this.

    One thing is certain, that 1997 performance may well be in my top 3 shows and maybe number 1 for as long as i live, the moment, the time, and the show were extraordinary. and I have the most vivid memory of it too unlike many other shows. Creep was hailed as the highlight, but it was a constant highlight from start to finish.

    No one else found this yet then?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfOa1a8h ... r_embedded - Video for Lotus Flower :mrgreen:

    Also:
    A representative from XL records has just sent this email out:

    Radiohead have brought forward the digital release of their new album "The King Of Limbs" by 24 hours with the album now being sent to those who pre-ordered it earlier this week. It is also available for new orders through http://www.radiohead.com at a fixed price of £6. A special edition is also available.

    With everything ready on their website, the band decided to bring forward the release by a day rather than wait until the planned date of Saturday, Feb 19 to deliver the music.


    Squeeeeeeeeeeeee! :mrgreen:

    Yeah, I liked it a lot when it came out, and it felt like a return to the Radiohead I liked - but over time I have come to love it even more - and go back to it a lot! Twisted dark and fragile - beautiful stuff

    Well I listened to it and sorry to be a party pooper but it's pretty dire. I was kind of glad when it was all over to be honest. 'In Rainbows' is much, much better. Saw this 'review'

    It's rock music as mime: all the posturing and none of the substance. Or humour. It's rock music as midlife crisis: premature and unwanted. It's rock music as mud: grey, formless, useless.'

    I think it sums it up pretty well. I'm certainly no die hard Radiohead fan though. Maybe they will think better of it.

    Lotus Flower and Separator are the only stand out tracks for me.

    Well you never know. I think the kind of music Radiohead make it's always going to divide it's listeners in strong measures.

    Radiohead's ability to reinvent themselves with everything they release is bound to produce split opinions. Personally, I try and imagine I'm listening to a band I've never heard when I hear a new Radiohead album... Avoid all expectations, as they avoid all inhibitions. This is a beautiful, surreal, haunting sounding album with Radiohead's signature embedded at its core. On my first go, and lovin' it.
