Radiohead - The King of Limbs

STOP

The members of Mumford and Sons were being born when Radiohead formed...

Already having a hard enough time dealing with the fact that Richard D James is 40 this year xp

Ha you're old. Oh wait. *coughs, leans on cane*

Give it seven more years and they'll be older than Jesus.

thom seems like the kinda guy who'll have a kierkegaardian crisis when this happens.

if it helps, i was an upperclassman.

Fear and Trundling

Either/Or Sliding Doors

I was in my freaking third tertiary course when HTTT came out. Now I wear slippers and have my hair set on Mondays.

The Sickness Unto Death can probably be used unchanged

Concluding Unscientific Postscript to Philosophical Fragments

god i have this giant mp3 folder of EVERY RADIOHEAD B-SIDE and now i want to put it on and ugh.

fucking love "palo alto".

Every time I see what we think is the cover of the new album I get Optimistic/In Limbo in my head. It's a perfect image for those songs.

I am digging Thom's (supposed) "alternate" tracklist for HTTT I found somewhere and might not actually be legit:

There There
The Gloaming
Sail to the Moon
Sit Down Stand Up
Go To Sleep
Where I End and You Begin
Scatterbrain
2+2=5
Myxomatosis
Wolf at the Door

Doesn't have Backdrifts on, which is my favourite.

I like all the tracks he left off, but I must say it flows rather nicely without them.

aside from "scatterbrain", the segue from "the gloaming" into "there there" is the only part of that album i really really love, so that'll have to be fixed.

haha me too

iirc HTTT came out during my sophomore year of highschool. i think that was also the year i discovered pfork, through a google search for Porcupine Tree of all things

I've been tracking down all the Thom Yorke remixes/singles I've yet to hear rather than listening back to all the RH records. "Hearing Damage" is a beaut.

Finally got & listened to Bodysong today. Grebt.

<3 bodysong.

"Feeling Pulled Apart By Horses" is a bit of a monster.

When HTTT came out I felt like one of the younger posters on ILX. Now I feel like one of the oldest.

First review of the new album:

Druqks wasn't relevant? There's a little British band who were bigging up his style quite a bit when it came out.

Kid A came out almost ten years ago now BTW.

Hmm, I remember buying it, then took it back to the shop
Me: "It's skipping"
Shop: "It's supposed to sound like that"
Me: "Gimme another one"
Shop: "OK"

Second one was better.

Same thing happened to me with Amnesiac. Only mine I think was really skipping.

(Mine was, also)

New band press photo. Sort of confirms suspicions this will either be their prog album or maybe something that will sound like Neil Young.

Going for the Mumford & Sons demographic is nagl for Radiohead.

*insert inevitable Under the Greenwood Tree pun here*

"Well, Yankee, looks like maybe you done gone strayed into the wrong wood. Wouldn't you say so, boys?"

Kid A came out almost ten years ago now BTW.

OVER ten years ago.
