    The whole album sounds like Thom Yorke put on a Pure Moods CD and recorded himself whining over it. Glad y'all like it, but I think it fucking blows.

    I just listened to this for the seventh time, the first time with a pair of high quality headphones, and I don't see how this won't be my album of the year. Not that it matters to anyone but me lol.

    I am going to wait and hear the new album when I see them in August. I like my first memory of a song to be formed while seeing it performed live.

    lol they shouldn't even be compared. PJ is great but they aren't a fraction as original or creative as Radiohead. Not to mention Radiohead takes more risks musically than Pearl Jam. Pearl Jam is a great American rock band, don't give them too much credit.
    This is true. Radiohead is genius. Pearl Jam is great. Working in a university math department, there's a lot of great people up there I'd rather hang out with than the few geniuses. But I don't get the two confused.

    The first time i listened to this album, I was thinking "this is ALL we get after the long wait"......about 5 listens later, I am on board and this is a great record!! Decks Dark is a jam! Desert Island Disk is great too " You Know what i mean" Damn its infectious. Love when an album grows on you. :-)

    it's extremely melodic, and more of a cousin to In Rainbows in that it's a band effort. .

    Thats on point. Yes!

    I don't know if I'm putting it at AOTY, just yet, but the more I listen to it, the more it blows me away. That's the type of album that has longevity for me. I like a record that makes you work a little. I was blasting this in my car and was amazed by the superior beauty of the mix and sound. My car stereo sucks, yet it still shined.

    I made the mistake of giving this album a first listen while driving to work with a distracted mind. I called it boring and forgettable. I might still feel that way over time, but it definitely seemed way more interesting to me when i played it in a dark room laying in bed last night. Will give it some more time, it might be clicking.

    On first listen I thought this is not the summer jam I will be blasting from my car haha. Definitely a headphone experience. Curious to see how they come off live.

    this is the Kid A for the millennials. best taken with a tab of acid.
    I think this record is Johnny vs Thom. they are almost to the point that the Beatles were when they tried to make Let It Be. 2 songwriters pulling in 2 different directions.
    still about 1/2 of the album is excellent. and I am sure it will grow on me.

    I'd say Johnny and Thom are the most aligned in terms of vision.

    I am not so sure.... sounds like Thom is singing over a trip hop beat and then johnny comes in with some beautiful orchestral scores. it works on some songs but on others it just doesn't sound right to me.

    I do think they are probably the only members with input nowadays.

    It's definitely Thom and Johnny orchestrating their visions on the rest of the band but, I have no doubt at all that Nigel played a huge part in the final product that is AMSP.
