Interesting, I do forget about most of the B/C sections and codas on this record, so it's a nice surprise when they hit and the strings/Ondes Martenot come in.

the bridge/b-section/whatever of "bodysnatchers" (has the light gone out for you/cuz the light's gone out for me/it's the 21st century/etc) makes the song

Weird Fishes in particular has a very cool harmony/melody decision that I should one day sit down and figure out, it’s subtle not-complicated but very effective. Great song

(my favourite mode of any band is their krautrock mode!)

I’m just thinking in rainbows, but some of its B sections are the best to my taste. Jigsaw callings climax, body snatchers comedown and build, Reckoners separating on a blank shore (etc., really for every track except weird fishes and Nude) are all my favourite parts. Everything in its right place does not have a lacking part to it at all.

i've long wanted a krautrock radiohead album
these days mind there's only one thing i want from radiohead, and it's not krautrock :(

Side A + Lotus Flower of King Of Limbs is enough Radiohead krautrock for me (I like it)

i have no complaints about the b & c sections of "weird fishes", they're both wonderful, especially the c section - that driving bass line! the disintegrating guitars! the background drones!

Catching that hi-10 friend. Johnnys guitar coming in at “I fell open / I lay under” is chills every time. That Kraut drum beat, so good

(Plus, the part on the "In The Basement" session version of "Weird Fishes" when Jonny briskly walks away from the keyboard station to set up his loop-delayed/chaotic gtr pattern for the last section of the song is so classic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcEJyvv6_kc)

I think there’s a lot to be said for how Radiohead changed after ‘How To Disappear Completely’ video documentary - they turned the microscope into a telescope of where they wanted to go.
