Geeky question: what's the difference between the deluxe and ordinary CDs, apart from two quid?

Quite a nice suit he's wearing in the video. Like his willingness to look a bit silly. Slightly reminded of that Saturday night TV program (name escapes me) where minor celebrities dance with ... people who can dance well.

I wonder how much impact it will have on sales for the companies thanked.

Listening now. It's very cool, but the tracklist doesn't seem right? One of the first tracks is from Broadcast's Berberian Sound Studio ost and it's not listed.

Finally had some free time to listen to this one today. On first listen the title track is my favorite one in here followed by Stuck Together Pieces, Ingenue and Reverse Running (probably the best structured song in here?).

The whole thing sounded a bit homogenic to my ears but there's nothing hateable in here, also lots of detail hidden throughout it so I might need to be in the right frame of mind (or using the right amount of drugs) for me to fall in love with it. It's certainly the sort of album that I would have loved about seven years ago.

Just when I thought I was done with Thom Yorke this record pulls me back in, and not by doing anything dramatically different from the stuff I've found tiresome about him in recent years but just by doing it with such warmth and skill.

I really love the first two tracks on this, can't get into the rest of it yet.

I wish to incorporate disco into my small business (chap), Tuesday, 9 April 2013 15:53 (eleven years ago) link

Atoms For Peace - BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix

i've been giving this album another shot, it's tough to make it through a full listen but sounds amazing when you pick two random tracks and then bail.

Revisiting this in hopes that new Radiohead is incoming and am really liking it a lot more than I remember to have initially.

Austin, Monday, 2 May 2016 19:15 (eight years ago) link

It's really strange how I like a lot of what Radiohead have put out over the years, yet I find their solo albums so totally, utterly unengaging. This one is no exception.

Amok is really good

First time hearing “Hearing Damage” on a random playlist I was streaming and I thought I was listening to an Interpol song

I didn't really get into this album beyond the first two tracks.
