New Radiohead Album Available on Saturday
« Reply #15 on: February 23, 2011, 10:33:53 am »
I haven\'t read any "official reviews" yet. But I have to imagine the overall response to this release is luke-warm at best.

I wonder what the band was really thinking releasing an 8 track album, 40 minutes long, with some of their slowest and least instrumental (except for the drums) music yet?

Is 2011 really so uninspiring compared to 2009, 2004, and backwards?

in general? just for radiohead? why are these years singled out as especially inspiring?

hmmm. so the album has really grown on me. my one gripe is that it\'s too short an album. don\'t get me wrong, there are 40-minute albums that are amazing (loaded comes to mind), this one just seems incomplete. the songs themselves are great...just wish there was a little more meat


i read somewhere that its actually going to be a "double disc" and a second half is coming.  Or that could just be a rumor.

Rough estimates of when they released way better albums.

1998 was apparently especially inspiring. Amirite?

Sorry, I\'m on Tuna\'s side on this one.  All the music they\'ve created has been good, but aside from In Rainbows, everything after OK Computer to me has seemed liked they\'re just trying to create music that sounds different than anything other people or themselves have done.  I\'d love it if they went back to rocking like they did in the early days and put this electronica shit down for a couple albums...

Yeah it\'s just a matter of opinion anyways.

I wasn\'t trying to take a side or anything. I love Radiohead and was hoping I would love their latest album a whole lot more, is all.
