The first time I listened to kol, I was kinda confused. It reminded me of amnesiac which I love, but I wasnt sure what radiohead were trying to communicate with the listener. the more I listen to it the more I like it and understand it. It is a very quiet album in comparison to their other observations but also a very atmospheric and dense album and im pretty
sure thats what they were going for. thumbs for sure on this one.

Downloaded their discography.

I think it's time to give this band another chance.
good for you dude. They are heavily overrated but rightfully so.

How can they be overrated if they're rightfully rated that high?

Been listening to King Of Limbs all day today and am really loving it, though I don't think Codex is that great of a song but maybe it's just me. My faves are Little by Little and Lotus Flower. And Separator is crying out for a heavy crescendo at the endddddd

holy shit seperator is beyond good.

I'd be interested to know what your favourite release is after you've had a chance to listen to them all

Listened to In Rainbows last night on my sexy headphones and I enjoyed it a lot. I've read that it's one of their more "straight-forward" albums and I could definitely hear that. Next: Hail to the Thief. I'm working my way backwards.

I knew u would dig In Rainbows. My guess is OK Computer will be your next favorite.

radiohead are amazing but if you're working backwards get ready for a letdown at the end (pablo honey). the rest of the catalogue is pretty damn solid though.

also the king of thieves sounds amazing on some quality headphones. lots of things going on that i didn't notice at first through my speakers.

theis

Just got done with Hail to the Thief.

A little long, but I liked it a lot. It had a dark/eerie vibe which I really dug.

Corleone

Going backwards with this band is a trip, because 'the bends' is so different, but still sooo radiohead. Love that album

Radiohead- The King of Limbs ALBUM REVIEW

Anthony's review was pretty brutal.  I agree to a certain extent but I think its a lot better than a light to decent 6. 

mr.sinister

true that listening to the new album on quality headphones is a trip. Im using sennheiser 650s. The quality is ethereal. Such a great album.

Glad you like in rainbows theis. Really good album. hail to the thief can be hit or miss for some but I dig it for the same reason u do. Love that gloomyness on sail to the moon.

theis

Got done with Amnesiac.

I think I liked it a little more than Hail to the Thief. Songs like Pyramid Song, I Might Be Wrong and Life In a Glasshouse were pretty fucking great.

Overall, this was definitely the most melancholic and depressing-sounding album I've heard yet from Radiohead. That's not a bad thing though.

yeah, i pulled my first listen with my shure 750dj and it was pretty good, even though i forgot to pull the doble eq.

there is much to hear with a 50mm speaker, thats fo sho!.

I really wish I still smoked the green, so maybe I would understand this record better. Can't connect with it yet. But most Radiohead albums take a while to grow on me until I fall in love with them.
