The King of Limbs : Americas



This is awesome news.

Awesome as a rocket launcher wielding, great white shark riding raptor.



Preorder or else you have horrible taste in music. True story.

 

[sparkchaser]

And BAM! preordered.

Released a day early.

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

so what do you think - i heard the first single and really liked it, it sounded a bit like kid a/amnesiac musically, though the lyrics were not cause for suicidal ideation....really, i would like to hear any feedback about the album.

 

[sparkchaser]

I like it. It's a lot mellower than In Rainbows.

 

[St. Stephen]

This album is baller! I dig the bass/electro aspect and have come to accept that you never know what to expect from Radiohead but take their releases with an open mind.

Little By Little, Lotus Flower, Separator, and Give Up the Ghost are all phenomenal songs.

Here's a link to the newspaper they released in conjunction with the album: Read Radiohead’s The Universal Sigh Newspaper | One Thirty BPM

Trivia: Radiohead has produced 13 children between them & the album is dedicated to them.

Looks like everyone is crazy about releasing albums with less than 40 minutes of runnung time. Well, I guess it is quite okay, as 40 minutes is about the time that one can listen at a stretch. i've have had issues with albums with long running times, however much good the album is. e.g. Lataralus-tool

Great album. The newspaper edition I got came with an acid blotter sheet. I thought that was hilarious.

 

[sparkchaser]

I forgot I ordered the newspaper edition and it showed up in my mail a while back. Happy surprise for me.

 

[triggrhaapi]

I love them so much. Right now my five favorites are Infected Mushroom, Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age, Radiohead and Muse. Not a one of them disappoints me ever.

Uponrepeated listens I have to conclude that this is one of my lesser favourite Radiohead albums. It sounds a bit like Kid A.
