    I'm not all the way through it but I gotta ask...WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO RECKONER????
    it's so different isn't it?! where are the scuzzy guitars? not that I care. I prefer the Kid A side of Radiohead.
    I'm on the last song... and this album is fantastic.

    Would you at least say that OK Computer is an abusive father and really pounds his beliefs into In Rainbows?

    Bodysnatchers is the one you will really love. Oh, and Jigsaws Falling Into Place.

    Yes, I think you will hear a bit of OK Computer on this album. It's not blatant, but there are a lot hints to it.

    hmm... that doesn't sound promising. ill get back to y'all.
    it's much less self-consciously arty than anything on Amnesiac and contains certainly more guitars than Kid A while still maintaining all of the elements that made Kid A great. listen to it. it's excellent.

  • I actually love the new Reckoner. It took me time to get used to it, but it's fucking great. I listened to the live version again and I can see why they changed it. The original riff was too simple...and sounded too much my Myxamytosis(sp?).

    Good for them. I'm not really a Radiohead fan, but I may download this just on principle and give them $15-$20. This is what bands and the RIAA SHOULD be doing.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    I am not even a huge Radiohead fan and I am gettin an earboner.

    Maybe the new album will help me appreciate Amnesiac and Kid A more.

    You're just getting an ear boner? Ever since the first note of 15 Step my pants have been really tight.

    Amnesiac has some amazing songs (Pyramid song for example) but I don't enjoy it a great deal as an album. Kid A is fantastic I reckon. I probably prefer it to OK Computer. I can already imagine liking In Rainbows best though after a few more listens.

    I havent even listened yet, but any comparison to OK Computer is good in my book.

    took me about 6 attempts and each page took several minutes but keep trying. it's worth it just for All I Need. one of their best songs ever.

    I have never successfully found my way around ANYTHING on Radiohead's official site... it is SO FUCKING USELESS!! Why does their site have to be so cryptic?
    Could someone please let me know how to get their new album?
    Thank you, I'm annoyed!

    fantastic... so the wankers once again take a great live guitar track and turn it into some shitty wannabe techno tune for the album?

    There is nothing on this album that even comes close to the "techno" of Kid A/Amnesiac
