Thom just shouted for fucks sake.

Irl probably.

Jonny strings all over the first half, it's great. Ful Stop sounds like Portishead's Hunter in terms of rhythm section treatment

Maybe they put the album alphabetical to confuse/deter leakers and leak downloaders.

There's a transition in between Decks Dark and Desert Island Disk. It's the real tracklist

It's the " Jonny using his strings, Thom likes his voice again, still musically distinct and coherent progressive album with SONGS not doodles" I wanted since post-Rainbows

I'm still holding off until we see what gets put up on WASTE.

Hopefully it'll be a packaging I don't feel like I'm destroying when opening it. My newspaper version of King of Limbs is still sealed, and I really want to listen to that album on a turntable. :sigh:

I meant it was the real track-list, but maybe they arranged the real track-list with the names that way to make people think something went wrong with the inevitable leak (as is happening now).

low key percussion and build, replace piano with Thom fingerpicking, it's more organic and less final than that version of videotape. Strings, layered guitars, shuffle rhythm (brushes). I love it it isn't a mere soundalike.

pretty fucking embarrassing to watch
I know that its leaked so its kinda irrelevant now but BBC Radio 6 are playing the thing in its entirety at the top of the hour, might be worth checking out if you haven't got the thing yet

The hour before has been them playing random radiohead poo poo from their back catalogue, currently its the really good Glastonbury 97 version of No Surprises

Bonus track disc !!

A MOON SHAPED POOL
Special Edition
SPECIAL EDITION
£60.00
Price includes shipping (oh thanks)

-----------

Case bound album, inspired by the albums for 78rpm shellac records in the library of La Fabrique, France
32 pages of artwork
The 11 track album on two heavyweight 12" vinyl records
Two compact discs: one with the album and one with two extra tracks
Recording tape belly band applied *
320kbit MP3 or 16-bit WAV of the 11 track album available to download immediately
* This is a piece of a Radiohead ½ inch master tape from an actual recording session.
The tape degrades over time and becomes unplayable. We thought rather than it ending up as landfill we would cut it up and make it useful as a part of the special edition. A new life for some obsolete technology...
Each loop contains about ¾ of a second of audio - which could be from any era in the band's recording past going back to Kid A. You may have silence, you may have coloured leader tape, you may have a chorus... It's a crapshoot.

We have copies. Don't worry.

Digital file sizes:
320kbit MP3 120MB
16-bit WAV 515MB

---

So obviously the thing to do is everyone who orders it collaborate and assemble what's there to piss EMI off

I've never really understood Radiohead's extreme popularity. I mean they're incredible and amazing and consistently innovative but all the other bands I'd describe with those adjectives, like Liars for example, have no real acceptance by the masses.

It's just weird to me that my favourite band is one of the most famous in the world when every other band I like receives no attention at all. How does Radiohead manage to release such good music and not have everyone consider it crap?

edited: to link a loving masterpiece that only has 9,668 views on youtube. I really don't understand it.

I mean, Liars gets alt cred, I'm pretty sure, which is what Radiohead would be getting if they hadn't started out as an alt pop band.
