DAngerer09 Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 This album is absolutely terrific and I'm not a huge fan of their other stuff. I love it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigideas Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 i got mine at 8:40 am. unfortunately i won't be able to download and listen for probably another 12 hours!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nicburto Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 I really like the first half of the album on first listen, but the second half might take longer. Definitely love Nude, Arpeggi, and All I Need on first listen. It seems more cohesive than HTTT and definitely a short album. Oh well, have to wait til the boxset thing comes out to hear the second disc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris_H_2 Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Standouts = Bodysnatchers, Nude, All I Need, and Reckoner. Misses = Appregi, Jigsaw, and Videotape. My God, Videotape turned into a disaster. And it was one of my favorites from last summer's tour. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Welsh Rich Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 "House of Cards" is the only stinker on it I think... not sure I get all the love for "Nude", it's nice, but not that brilliant song everyone's made out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Duck-Billed Catechist Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 howdy Montana/EssoxWhat is the deal with that guy? Does he think his opinions will gain more of an audience if he keeps re-registering with new names? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris_H_2 Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 I've said this in other forums, but I can't get over how much Bodysnatchers reminds me of the National Anthem at the 1:05 mark. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DAngerer09 Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Best: 15 Step, Bodysnatchers, Weird Fishes/Arpeggi, Jigsaw Falling Into Place weak links: House of Cards and Videotape Overall, I think I like this more than the past few Radiohead albums because Yorke's voice seems a bit less whiny and shaky.

Jospe Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 What is the deal with that guy? Does he think his opinions will gain more of an audience if he keeps re-registering with new names? System upgrade, running Quad Core, lost login info. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Azzurri Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 totally surprised by Reckoner...amazing song. unrecognizable from the live versions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Welsh Rich Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Can't help you I'm afraid, not heard the other version... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmyjimmy Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 not sure I get all the love for "Nude", it's nice, but not that brilliant song everyone's made out.It's a solid song and a good rendition here but there's been various arrangements out there for years. It'll take awhile for me to kinda embrace this new version. On another note: Wheee! I can't wait for the vinyl. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmyjimmy Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 depends if it's the OKC era version or newer funkier version. i can't get a response as to which it is. Sparse and light. Not as "sweet" or "chimey" as the earlier versions. Bit quicker tempo. Not quite as moribund either. Did that help at all, cause I'm not quite sure I actually said anything?

Sir Stewart Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 So, I take it it's bad form to request a PM concerning this particular release? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wilco LP #7 Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 i don't think i've ever heard rock music sound so awesomely creepy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Did that help at all, cause I'm not quite sure I actually said anything? sound interpretation is hard to verbalize, but you get an A for effort no doubt. someone needs to have a blog stream or youtube vid with the audio so i can listen at work. surely someone has done this...

isadorah Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 am i the only one that thinks there is a certain melancholy to the music being made today? so far i'm liking in rainbows, it's no kidA and doesn't have the edge of amnesiac, but holds its own in a sorrowful melodic sweet creepy kind of way. all i need stands out the most to me so far.

jc4prez Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 well made it through one time. I can't judge any of the songs since ive only herd them once but i can say..... music clearer mix then most of their other stuff. You can really hear everyone fairly clear. Its much poppier then there other stuff. It kinda of takes what they've done before and puts it in more easily digestable setting Quote Link to post Share on other sites
