This is pretty much the most upbeat record I've heard them do. I'm really enjoying it, it sounds so much more invigorated. Nude is pretty incredible.

I'm only 3 songs in, but it seems like they haven't broken any new sound yet, mostly a good re-tread of the classic radiohead sound.

[devilhead]

yes devilhead, we already know you're an annoying cunt who tries to shit on everything people like while adding nothing of value on your own

go back to dreaming of getting pussy for the first time

Spoken just like someone who knows absolutely nothing of whom he speaks.  Where's the legendary Jewish sense of humor?

Ive listened to it three times through so far, and my first reaction is that I love it.  I can see myself listening to this all fall/winter.

[jabberwocky]

that's fucking great. I needed new music. I already got the new High Tone, new electric wizard released november 12th, Radiohead, my copy of neurosis times of grace should arrive soon........ good period fopr music.

Yay.

20 %.....come on quick!

Weird Fishes/Arpeggi is amazing.  The album really explodes with a rush of beats but starts to slow and become more spacious as it continues.  I like the transformation it takes.  

As for the sound...it sounds..I dunno.  It's somewhere in between accessable radiohead and ambient radiohead.  I love the use of piano/xylophone thing/violins throughout.  

But I thought this album was supposed to be frightening?  Isn't that what Yorke said?  This is probably the least scary or intimidating Radiohead album in years, but that's not a bad thing.  It's got a lot of beautiful moments.

[brixton bruxelles]

it is mellow and beautiful and, like ash said, more positive and upbeat than their other albums.
i love the production, it gives it a nice retro feel to it.
the band balance seems great, too. no one member is taking over, it's very complete.
it's a beautiful album and i'm much more impressed with it than i thought i'd be.

i bet colin boogies his little socks off to bodysnatchers

[Regular_Dave]

that arpeggi tune is bangin

[Nihilist]

So I see they used Ho Clocka's suggestion for the album title

isn't it funny that the gay flag looks almost like this one:

This will immeditately make me the least popular member of the forum but I don't like Radiohead and never have. They bore me.

  

we can never be together now.

Sorry brix, I never could really get into them.

sorry isn't good enough, ho. try again!

i couldn't get into qotsa when i first heard/saw them.
i thought josh was a ginger, warbling twat and nick was a scary-bearded, saggy-testicled freak.
then i tried again a year or two later and i was ready for them

[rainelinden]

This album is amazing......... I can't believe I got it for free! I feel bad now, I'll probably wind up paying for it once the guilt has overwhelmed me...

[HolteEnder]

I fucking love it.

LOVE

IT.

[MarcBaldy]

Cheers Rickshaw!

[rainelinden]

Nude is beatiful and the run in to Arpeggi is perfection.... Damn I just wanna keep talking about this album but no-one in my flat listens to Radiohead....

[Tenacious Z]

Damn, 'tis a badass month for music. This week, Radiohead. Next week, Soulsavers. Week after that, Ween. Hallelujah!

[MarcBaldy]

Faust Arp sounds so much like Nick Drake's Pink Moon.

Loving it at the moment, got that far. Defo a cider song after a night out.

[Zombi3]

Not a bad album. And I don't usually listen to radiohead.

[brixton bruxelles]

Faust Arp sounds so much like Nick Drake's Pink Moon.

yeah, i noticed the nick drake feel to it. must be the acoustic pinglyness and the cellos

oh and the end of reckoner reminds me of massive attack's unfinished symphony with that string section there.

Ha! My last name is Arp, so I may have to ACTUALLY pay for this one, though the only Radiohead album I like listening to is The Bends.

Possibly the best reason to buy a album. Thats the only reason The Smiths are popular, fucking loads of them.

Your not alone, I tried and tried again, but they do nothing for me.

It's kind of funny how Queens of the Stone Age and Radiohead are just one contact away from each other, Thom Yorke has collaborated with both PJ Harvey and UNKLE.

I get the feeling they have more connections than that, I mean the fact that Josh directly quoted Radiohead's Creep in YCQMB suggests that he's at least a fan.

I never made that connection until you said it.
