New Radiohead Album "In Rainbows"

<< < (12/22) > >>

ScrambledGregs:
1) Pablo Honey is not a shitty album. It is definitely Radiohead's worst album, but it's still not shitty. A good half of it is unmemorable and bland, but it's not shitty.

2) Amnesiac is awesome, and I love 'Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors.' I even have that limited edition of it that came in the form of a small book.

3) Has In Rainbows leaked yet?? j/k

Radiohead suffers from what I call "3D Sonic Syndrome". Because some things associated with the name are very highly esteemed by critics and other people, there's a higher expectation for the quality. As such, when something doesn't deliver on that expectation or be on par with the original, it is considered shitty, even though mediocre would be a more apt term. (I can understand not everyone being into Sonic Heroes, but despite its faults it's mostly a nice game, though progressively more dysfunctional.)

WriterofAllWrongs:
Pablo Honey was reasonably okay, I think.  Other than Creep and Anyone Can Play Guitar, it was just a different take on the advent of 90's "alt-rock", if not a little sloppily done and pedestrian.  But then again, it was their first album and they didn't have a huge amount of experience with things.

Amnesiac is among my favorite of their albums.  I don't really understand the problem with Pull/Pulk.  It was the same type of song as Kid A, just bass-driven.  The vocal modulation is very nice in my opinion.

On topic: I really want to get my hands on this album, but everything with the downloads and all that is hazy, so I'm just going to wait until December 7th to purchase it, seeing as it would just be easier and more convenient.

I'm wealthy enough now to pay the insanely extravagant price for the fancy-Dan, handjob-giving diskbox for £40, sterling.

This news fills me with happy juices.

And no, not that kind, pervert.
