juanmiguelpascual - next level music!Radiohead proves again that they don’t repeat the same sound style in every album. addictive and hypnotic!
Čœßtūmër - One of a kindOf the Radiohead catalogue, this is one of their best. Prepare to hear sounds you didn't know were possible.
Jady0613 - AmazingFavourite album of all time
Lebhotelier - Astounding MagnificencePerfection is synonymous now with Radiohead! With A Moon Shaped Pool they deliver a triumphant and powerful LP9 that continues their legacy as the greatest band in the world! What a hauntingly beautiful new album, a must have!
tried Flipps - Love itBut why is the release year is 1916? 😄
POIPOIPOI - BeautifulGreat sound; I always enjoy Yorke's overdubbing his own voice. Try it with headphones
Rapass123 - C'est un bon albumL'album est bon mais j'aurais mieux aimé plus rock encore comme celui de The Bends. Cependant, c'est un des album le plus reussi de radiohead avec Burn the Witch comme chanson préférée de l'album :)
Mick master - Awesome!Try listening with headphones. Absolutely incredible.
Renata Pinto - Beaut' albumAn other-worldly experience.
Louis : ) - Absolutely LovelyThis album is, as one expects from Radiohead, excellent.
It stands out from the others while retaining the great Radiohead sound.
Worth the money.
chiefqc - One of their best... if not their bestWill probably be ranked in the top albums of this decade like was Ok Computer in the '90s. They reinvent themselves constantly and the final result is just amazing. "Present tense" is my favorite of the moment and all the other songs are also great.
BeetsMe1975 - Can I get a refund?Every song ... Snooze button
Groove311 - Boring...Well i'm so disappointed after all those years..too slow songs after songs. Next time!
YukonMusic - is this a meditation tape? Snoozefest alertWasnt sure if I downloaded the right album, as many reviewers say how this is like Ok Computer and old Radiohead, full of guitars and amazing versechorusverse songs. Instead, we get yet another sonic masturbatory snoozefest of Thom's Celine Deline impressions and Johnny's computer vortex.
Totally sucks. Deleted it already ...
jimcrick - You want this.High art, true art, as always. A devastatingly gorgeous work, and one of their most vulnerable and intimate as well.
Alexander Eastwood - 4.5/5 Dark and Deceptive.Great album. It's beautiful, pure and an emotional roller coaster if you choose to dig into the lyrics. If you're looking for production value this is a great album to look at, however my recommended listen would be a late night listen, or even maybe a listen during a thunder storm. Very human album, 3rd best behind In Rainbows and Kid A for me.
Pantheract - BrilliantAgain Radiohead creates something I've never heard before.
Kami781227 - Bloody MarvellousIt's like a mix of alternative rock, minimalism and classical music!
AntonioLanza - Occasionally transcendentGood, but not Great — maybe only because of Radiohead's extraordinary catalog. Love this album though.
sharsharjo - Amazing. Beautiful.Might love this album as much as any other before it which is a very tall order. If you are a fan, this is everything you could hope for and expect.
ChristopherMortensen - Thom knows best.As with all Radiohead releases, if you "don’t like it" or you "just don’t get it" then You haven’t put enough of your own time into it. Let go, listen, experience & learn.
You’ll be a better person for having done so.
phyl08 - A work of artI like practically everything that Radiohead has recorded over the years but this one is an absolute joy to listen to. It is truly among their best work to date. Hope I can catch them live this summer.
thesearewords - I am speechless!I've been a Radiohead fan since 1993 and every album gets more & more intriguing. Yes, I am a Radiohead fan for life!
DJ Loose-Toof - Radiohead = :)Good album. Songs 1,3,4,5,7,8,9 are sweet!!
XxihatetheletterxalotxX - Quite possibly the album of the decadeWith every listen I am blown away. The band kills it on this album. The strings and keys are beautiful and emotional, the bass is very defined and although it may hide away in some tracks, it still sounds stellar from Colin. The drumming is euphoric. Upbeat and consistently good and steady throughout the whole album. The lyrics and vocals blew me away. Thom gives us what we expected from him in every way. The track 'true love waits' feels like an entirely new song, even thought I must've heard the old version 50 times. It made me cry. Knowing that the song is most likely on the album with a slower, more emotional reworking to reflect the sadness of Thoms ended love and the other hardships this group had gone through since their last release. The song 'identikit' might be my favourite radiohead song, because it captures everything I love about this group. Every song makes me feel a very strong feeling, that changes with every song. From the first lyric 'STAY in the shadows' in the upbeat opener 'burn the witch' to the final word on the album 'don't LEAVE' This perfectly self aware, flawlessly assembled and orchestrated album had me hooked, and still does. The tiny details, stay and leave at the beginning and end, the alphabetical order as well as all the social media stunts the group pulled before the albums release, establishes Radiohead as one of the smartest and most original groups on the planet. They're a musicians band, a music lovers band, an average joes band. Radiohead is for everyone. A moon shaped pool is a master crafted work of art. This is a beautifully sad record. Perfection.
Mikechuk - Don't know what others are thinking☹️Just a carry over from previous albums ...lethargic and tiresome,
Definitely not their comeback album
mikesasse - Not for money but the love of musicA great piece of work done with their heart and soul...not for the money like too much pseudo musicians…Fantastic !!!
luckygal74 - GorgeousThis album is a gorgeous array of sound. I'm in love. Radiohead takes us the listener on an artistic journey of sound and thought and imagination.
Send9 - How about using a guitar every once and awhile1This album sucks, just like dos too their new stuff. MORE GUITAR LESS WHINING!!
MonstaMurda - AmazingThis album is fantastic :)
Antigeno78 - FinalmenteTuvieron que regresar a lo que eran!
Montrealkev - A New MasterpieceNo words can describe the truly unique and powerful feelings this album will produce in you... A MUST BUY people. The Pink Floyd of our generation, nothing less.
BackSlashGaming - Radiohead is amazingGreat album, I love it when people like Sammy Alain try to take part in these types of festivities without any knowledge of the band.
Mccannic - Best Band In The WorldAmazing new album from a band that continues to the most exciting and innovative working today. Been listening to this back to back and the songs continue to amaze and surprise. You have to respect artists that might take 20 or more years to perfect a song before it makes its way onto an album. Quite something that they have a few more these songs that continue to be kept on deck for future albums when they have a version they are comfortable with.
MrKennyI - One of their best.Captivating from start to finish. Amazing album.
SKVTLW - EmotionalThis is the kind of music we need living in this crazy world. MERCI BOCUP Radiohead!!! You are always genius in your creations.
Brightonius - Up there with Kid A, OK Computer and In RainbowsThat is all
Skeletonian - Impossible to describe - like true love and crushing heartbreakUtterly beautiful, hauntingly emotional, and meticulously crafted. A perfect new sibling for OK Computer, Kid A, In Rainbows, Amnesiac, HTTT, etc....what an amazing family of work!
Genniepou - Pure genius!Their best work since 'In rainbows' !!!
Profmart - Excellent !Enfin un opus plus rock pour ce grand groupe !
lastofthelisteners - unexpectedAs always, i love radiohead.
this album follows their trajectory into a more cohesive addition of electronic and beat heavy music. It is pop-y at times which seems misplaced w thoms vocals, but returns to a melodic beauty akin to radiohead songs. its may 8th and i downloaded it, it says may 9th release... glad to have had the chance already to listen.
cant wait to repeat it for a while
HungryBert - So deepThe boys are back....and in the greatest way !
Would recommend if you wanna pass a great moment.
Psyfrog - Beautiful & AwesomeAtherial and hit's the spot. Have Radiohead ever released anything not epic? Love this album allready.
Madbabbit - This is music.Radiohead are musicians. There are so many layers to this album, it is at once gorgeous and meditative, unsettling, and existential. I think a lot of people are still waiting for the days of three guitars playing at once to come back, but it is pretty clear that those days are never coming back. Radiohead have always been a band on the move, shifting and changing but always returning to the beauty and joy that real music is, the kind of music that touches your soul and reminds you that you are still alive. The common thread is melody, structure, and sequence. Current and important, growing and adapting.
Classicrock Man - Simply beautifulThey did it again! So soft and creative. Life is so fast and unpredictable that the band is giving a very effective musical remedy.
RdhdFan - AmazingFrom start to finish, this album is a masterpiece. It was well worth the 5 year wait since The King of Limbs.
Matmoc20000 - TranscendentProbably Radioheads most beautiful record to date. It reminds me of Kid A. Identikit is marvellous.
TimothyDP - A bold new step forwardIf The Bends and Ok Computer were records associated most often with the sweetly paranoid persona of Thom Yorke, A Moon-Shaped Pool may be the band's Jonny Greenwood record.
Not that Thom's performance is at all understated as this probably the most confident and versatile he's ever sounded on a record. Rather, it's the fact that Greenwood's lush orchestration and guitar work (hey, there's a guitar solo on this album!) go from being mood enhancers to mood creators.
And this pushes Radiohead into exciting new territory. While occasionally seeming a tad overproduced, there are just too many moments of acoustic-electric bliss to really care. Ful Stop, in particular, stands out upon first listen as being absolutely startling in its uniqueness. It's the aural equivalent of watching the Matrix for the first time.
Absolutely recommended.
Fdddusjxuxcux - WholesomeIt’s simply incredible. I can hear vibes from all of their previous albums, really making this one whole. Extremely happy with it. Feels complete.
OttPal - Brilliant.This could be a classic album from one of my favourite bands ever. Lots of guitars and synths make for a wonderful blend of the band’s many sounds. Thom Yorke is mesmerizing and Johnny Greenwood’s classical chops shine. Get it, you will not be disappointed.
rensta - Radiohead = Fine ArtYet ANOTHER masterpiece from the best band on earth, it's beautiful, it's haunting, just so unbelievably amazing! Like most Radiohead albums, you need to listen to this a few times to get your head around it, but once you do.. WOW.. it hits you like a sledgehammer, how do they do it?? Every album is epic, I'm not sure where this fits into there catalogue ratings wise, up there with Kid A for sure, a pure masterpiece, Thankyou Radiohead!
Not having it... - Everything and moreA true masterpiece
Thepotterwhovian - REALLY GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!This album is one of Radiohead's best albums! It is among the best albums by Radiohead and is just as good as OK computer, kid a and in rainbows!
Wakeupme - Vomit-inducingThis album sounds like a cat being tortured for the duration.
Thom obviously lost his testicles years ago and this clearly is obvious in his whiny voice.
I shall listen to this album when sleeping tablets, counting sheep and/or copious amounts of alcohol do not help me go to sleep.
Supacoach023 - MasterpieceHave had it playing non stop since its release.
Fantastic vocals with Radioheads amazing musical sounds!
Highly recommend!
The truth shall be heard - GarbageJust a hopeless album.
GrayGray8 - Listen more than once!!!!Needs a good 15 listens before review.
One star bandits surely havnt listened through even once.
No it's not amnesiac, or OK computer, or kid A!!! It's new and that's an amazing accomplishment for a band to continue to be progresses despite their humongous discography!!!!
I do have a minor bug bare. Not much space on tracks occasionally they could just not do that 20th piano track but whatever it's gold
MossRoy - So much better than ‘Limbs”...When ‘King of Limbs’ disappointed, I thought my Radiohead days (follower since the 90s) may be over. Not so - ‘A Moon Shaped Pool’ is a superb offering which sits comfortably in the collection alongside their best work. They found their melody and their mojo with this one and every track demands your full attention. Love it.
Heavealie - A piece of ArtFew listens and the album is pure artwork. A Moon shaped pool will submerge you underwater yet not choke or drown you. It is like that serenity underwater just before the body gives up.
Scattrdvangrd - MasterpieceMasterpiece!!! Genius!!! Another Magnum opus in my opinion.
Durace - Just gorgeousFeels like a goodbye album. Thank the universe that radiohead exsist. Such beauty..
PearlJamFan123 - Another classic album!!!They've done it again. What can you say, what more can you say...gem of an album..
Newcastle_Craig - Masterful compositions from a mature bandRadiohead know quality composition inside and out, and this is a heightened expression of the orchestral framework they've been realising in evolving ways across the decade. A masterful achievement.
FlammingWarrior - GoldHahahahahahahaha, some noobs have this 1 star.
Grow a brain.
Taepdong - billybobwith each listen, the concentration gets more potent! i'm i n daze atm.it puts me in my ether every time. must not listen anymor......
Javomed - Flawless as always!Radiohead we missed you!
SeaicanMexfood - Layered beautyThis album is beautiful haunting. So atmospheric and tender.
Emhoy - FlawlessLove it, so hypnotic and beautiful Radiohead never disappoint
Sianm151 - PerfectPerfection, both with the individual songs and in its entirety. Really special.
chelseabayern - Welcome backListened to it five times on repeat during flight. Fell in love with it. An album you can listen to and find a new depth and hidden layers with each listen.
dc washington - SublimeAfter a few listens it becomes increasingly clear that Radiohead have created something truly special here. Music that you can listen to with the volume up or down, when you're happy or sad.
Judedab - DaydreamIncredible album, best enjoyed from start to finish. Puts me into a trance, beautiful music.
Rani Delarue - FeverishJoyousness every play
GRXDLS - Radiohead get the balancing act right.There are times when Radiohead seem to think making accessible music is a crime. Thankfully they weren't in that kind of mood this time around.
A Moon Shaped Pool is an album full of amazing, beautiful and haunting music. If you thought King of Limbs was a steaming pile of dog turds, then you'll be pleased to hear A Moon Shaped Pool is an album that placed music, melody and atmosphere above pretentiousness.
countmyshoes - not a foul tasting medicineI was only half way through this album when I realised it was up there with Kid A and IR.
Somewhere between the psychedelic flutters of Ful Stop and the raw, scratchy solo in Identikit, it hit me that I was listening to a masterpiece.
Solid track after solid track, the perfect mix of heart destroying melodies, and head bopping groves.
DavidJ75 - Where it's all been leadingI am a long time fan of Radio Head from the early 90's and you can literally hear the journey they have been through in this current album. Glad to hear them again and love this work
very hip old dude - Full ImmersionI've grown old with Radio Head. No artist on the planet more accurately resonates with my journey through life. This album simply overwhelms all of my expectations. It is like a total immersion experience. You lose yourself in something bigger. Its layered and rich yet humble. I felt a deep loss when it ended, so I did something I'd not done since I was a teenager, I played it over and over again.
autiscott - RemarkableI rarely bother writing reviews. I can't help it on this occasion. This album is brilliant. Thank you... Thank you... Thank you.
diaper baby - I LIKE RADIOHEAD BUT NOT ITUNESITUNES WONT LET ME DOWNLOAD THE ALBUM IT SAYS PURCHASED BUT I CANT PLAY ANY OF THE SONGS
Pejix Music Review - Who else but Radiohead!........serious....masterful......haunting....delightful....mysterious.....hair raising......delicious....bitter..... melancholic.....impossible......joyful...........who else but Radiohead can deliver all that in a single album!
BEZ471 - WOW!This album is truly amazing and has blown me away
I never thought they could better okComputer when suddenly ..... this new album arrives unannounced ..... and yes I think it's their best album ..... Love it!!!!
Thanks guys for such a masterpiece
Mustangman789 - AmazingI can't get over the amazing beauty of Daydreaming and Glass Eyes, so captivating to listen to, thanks Radiohead!
DanielShizas - Absolutely BrilliantAofY
colorshade - beautifulbuy it. buy it for yourself. buy it for your loved ones. buy it for your dog/cat. buy it over and over again like I did.
iamdmac - Beautiful masterpiece!!! Waiting for the vinyl release now 👌🏼Beautiful masterpiece!!! Waiting for the vinyl release now 👌🏼
Svids - Radiohead reinvents itself againRadiohead has yet again shown that it is one of the most fluid bands out there, ready to reinvent itself from the ground up while still remaining undoubtabley 'Radiohead'. Toto, we are not in 'Fake Plastic Trees' anymore...
Dr Tchok - lp9stellar as always. that jonny sure knows how to write some strings, he shines on this album.
bmfraser - all hail king radiohead....Album of the year so far I kid A you not, and im not their biggest fan, but this is seriously good music. Right up there with in rainbows. 10/10. magic stuff.....
Ammo180 - Good - a bit bizarreDon't take Bizarre the wrong way but it is bizarre. I really wondered what all the fuss was about first listen, even 2nd listen and was losing my faith in Radiohead. But is a real grower, takes a few listens. Suddenly, you hit the 4th or 5th listen and certain songs are stuck in your head, you hear things you've not heard before, it sounds complex but simple at the same time. Bizarre. Good album though and don't take it so serious.
ProfessorX_2016 - Amazing!This is a fantastic album, from start to finish. It really grows on you. With each listen you will pick up something that you did not hear previously. It is a very complex, intricate masterpiece which perfectly demonstrates what makes radiohead such a master of their craft. Even though some of these songs were written years apart, and they are ordered alphabetically, they flow from one into another perfectly. I really don't know how they continue to put out work of this quality after this many years!
JordieKing - BeautifulSmooth, eclectic, quirky goodness.
Annabella 47284 - IncredibleThis album is a complete work of art!!!
kidk19 - A moon shaped poolI can't even believe how good this is.
nollsyrobbed03 - ExhilaratingThis album is a journey from start to finish. Amazing is the only word I can think of. People who call this boring don't understand the meaning of music. There aren't many albums that take you on such a dreamy ride like this one. Brilliant, love Radiohead. Absolute geniuses.
Coloureverafter - the most amazing soundscapeI can’t stop playing this album. It’s a mesmerising soundscape of intuitive rock, combined with original, sensitive instrumentation — exquisitely composed by masters of the art.
I adore it. And I don’t say that lightly. I’ve loved Radiohead ever since the beginning, but this is my favourite album. It’s a tough decision, but I really think it is. Thank you.
ThisIsAGame96 - Radiohead!!Radiohead are simply musical geniuses. This is probably one of thier strongest releases to date!
SukkhaP - What an artwork!The artwork looks like a topview of a melting glacial pool. It suggests climate change. Is that deliberate?
nshady - A heartbreaking masterpiecePoignant, meticulous and shimmeringly beautiful.
Jtw3553 - Ecstasy.So my 5 year sojourn to find the most brilliant music ends where it started. Radiohead. I honestly don't know why I bothered trying to look.
A hook here or there but nothing compares. Nothing. This is the most sublime, hypnotic, memorable and complete work of art.
Ful Stop.
Present Tense with a good set of headphones is orgasmic.
I'm never resting to explore new music, but will always return to quite simply
The Best Band Ever.

$ahh - Sublime, haunting, beautifulI'd say this is definitely the best album of the last decade, if not longer. Lie down, plug in your headphones, press play and escape from any hell.
JaggedFall - My Favourite Album of the YearOnce again, Radiohead creates a fantastic and legendary album. It combines Thom Yorke's melancholic sounding lyrics with a more classical genre adding to Radiohead's shape-shifting and alternate style of rock we all know and love.
Hodges Marna - Radiohead's finest yetThis album is seriously worth a try. It was a like on the first listen and as I've seriously let it grow on me for the past 2 weeks, and can say that it's brilliant and I feel it'll be timeless as years go on.
Huntersmoon45 - No need to conform to the normDistinctly Radiohead on a journey of discovery a great blend of music for a true awakening.
Rugby Ant - Stunning, simply beautifulThom and the boys have created a stunning album of beautiful songs, with Desert Island Disk a classic already.
A slight departure from the last couple of albums with more emphasis on stripped back vocals and sweeping string arrangements.
Buy this album
anfras - Number OneIt’s simple - this is slowly revealing itself to be Radiohead’s best album. Buy it.
emerald_green - freshMagical, fresh
Jug Jug - BeautifulAnother monster piece from an extraordinary band that we are blessed to share time-space with.
Thom's voice sounds like he's still somewhere in the 90's (young) and the music is as exploratory as it always is.
Beautiful work.
Fodito - A MasterpieceIt took me a couple of listens but this is an absolute masterpiece. Loses a bit of steam towards the end in my opinion but the more I listen to it the more songs I like. I had one favourite track at first: Identikit, then others like: Decks Dark, Desert Island Disk, Daydreaming, Burn The Witch were gradually added. Ful Stop may be next! I think it should be listened to in its entirety.
What struck me was the lack of much guitars on this one apart from a couple of songs. And the fact that I didn't mind it at all!!
K,r - ExcellentRadiohead deliver yet again! Brilliant album with a fresh new sound
Nor Heavin - Love itWhy now 5.99 ? That's so unfair don't mind purchase as I did full price but this stinks no wonder people download for free ,, 👎👎👎
Roddigor - Life AffirmingLike the rising of a new day, to be cherished. Their best work!
gman_66 - Just incredible!There are no words to describe how incredible Radiohead's music is - I just hope this album isn't their last - it really is astonishingly brilliant.
ftatman - A weak step backwardsIn Rainbows was a pleasant return to form after several mostly dull albums. King of Limbs had a few gems but otherwise couldn't keep up the standard. This album feels like a step backwards to the full days of Amnesiac. Thom drones over very weak drum beats and soft cinematic music. It's all a bit tedious and slow this time around, after the energy of the last two albums. If you like Radiohead when they are twiddling knobs and being pretentious, this one might interest you but there's not enough here for even long time fans. Sorry. Better luck next time.
Inthesea80 - Radiohead at their absolute bestTheir best album since Kid A
pcmiv27 - top tunespainfully beautiful and evocative…flawless and powerful, reminiscent of Kate Bush’s 50 Words for Snow in it’s lazy and languid style
A-Landscapes - Genius!I've never been bothered to write any kind of review before but some how felt compelled to write this one.
It's a album to be listened from beginning till the end as you are following some sort of melodic storyline.
Absolutely gorgeous!
Purple Aguero - FlawlessUnbelievable. Best album of 2016 so far without a doubt. Every single track on this album is a masterpiece in different ways and they are written and composed very well. It's very dark and gloomy and haunting and it seems like you're in an eerie dream the whole way through. Radiohead never fail to achieve what is expected.
hashtag lol - Always and forever amazingMoving forward, creating, morphing, progressing and yet always the same.
My very favourite never disappoints
Mr_rockydo - Much better than TKOLGreat album. The Bends and OK Computer are my favourites. My friend doesn't agree but I preferred this to In Rainbows also. Defiantly my 4th favourite album by them (Kid A just coming a little in front)
1brack1 - Don't listen to the 1starsPeople giving this 1 star 😳 , really ?? You have not listened to this , you're just wind up merchants , brill yet again from the mighty radiohead 👍
Cylonatreides - Amazing!Radiohead deliver once again with a collection of sonic perfection, its staggers me how I went so far through life without knowing their music but rest assured that this album is a work of perfection. Every song is great but my favourites are Glass Eyes & Present Tense for the sheer beauty of the composition, instrumentals and lyrics all with that unmistakable Radiohead sound. Buy it, gift it, Love it ;)
Jurgen159 - High & Dry on actual songs!!I know Radiohead are High & Dry on melodic tunes & now compose sounds that come close to music - but even for them, this is really dull & boring!!!
Back to Ok Computer for me I guess!
blakey0101 - So beautifulRadiohead release another classic record of stunningly beautiful songs
Glenboblade - Good but not King of LimbsLove this album but they have to be brilliant to better King of Limbs !!!
Dirt treader - Downhill all the pretentious wayThis band peaked 19 years ago, down hill since, and this is no better than the other pretentious miserablist rubbish they have been putting out for nearly two decades now. Cheer up, get a life and lsiten to something more inspiring.....
J in Glasgow - Ok computer good, that goodSuch a wonderful blend of songs which are a true journey from a band which has pioneered for decades.
Mol90 - QualityDecent set of cans, few beers.....really enjoyed this.
BillyMobetter - Beautiful & FantasticThis is such a beautiful album. I just wish more people could do what these guys do. Stunning, beautiful melodies, wonderfully layered with gorgeous vocals, great baselines, guitars, tinkling piano, drums and all the other quirky sounds thrown in too. It’s just hard to pick which song is best, but Decks Dark, Identikit and Present Tense still blow me away after over 20 plays. Daydreaming and Glass Eyes are contenders too. Burn the Witch is the best upbeat dance one.
No to app - How much?I don't care how good an album is, a digital download should be no more than £4 - £5. Any wonder why all the kids download for free - greedy labels and bands are destroying the album. Don't get me started on Spotify.
@Kaizenken1 - Perfection!Rarely does an album achieve such an accolade. Can't fault it. Love it already. Know I will love it for many years to come. Thank you.
#filmscorefan - A Moon Shaped MasterpieceIt's one of the best feelings in the world when you play a new album for the first time and you're blown away by every song.
Navov - Not greatI am huge Radiohead fan but this is a poor offering - a collection of reworked b sides at best. Gone are the times when a Radiohead album moved me (the last was In Rainbows) - this doesn't - sorry but I think it has got rave reviews just because they are "Radiohead" - let's hope the next one is a vast improvement
Piffle - mmmmmmm!Magbloodynificent!!!!
neoromantic - Their best albumHave been listening for a few weeks now before writing. It's a special one.
sssssssssseessd - perfectI’ve listened to this very many times since purchase. It’s a beautiful piece of work. Complex arrangements and transcendent vocals. - you can watch thom playing the tracks alone on an acoustic on you tube, if you want to see how the songs originated. I love the use of strings and there seems to be a nod towards Gainsborough and Melody Nelson (or am i the only one hearing it.
Yorkshirepudding987 - Great music, terrible quality encoding on iTunesI'd give a 4 or 5 for the music, brilliant collection of tracks from Radiohead. What lets this down is the, frankly, shocking quality of the encoding on iTunes. This is an album that demands listening with headphones, but sadly doing that only highlights the bad encoding that iTunes uses. Quiet parts of certain tracks this is noticeable with a hissing sound and a muffled echoed on drum beats. Pretty sure this is due to the compression Apple uses.
I will be buying the CD when it's released, but couldn't wait until then so bought it off iTunes, wish I'd waited now. This has put me off buying music on iTunes :-(
Can't fault the album though, one of Radiohead's best. My advice is buy the CD instead and encode it yourself!
Jim the weegie - DisappointedSo here's a different review to the rest. First I am a big fan of Radiohead up until I bought this. The opening track Burn the Witch is brilliant and then it descends into self indulgent drudge. I've been disappointed too often, given up hoping for a return to the days of OK computer and the false dawn that was Hail to the Thief, well and truly gone this just underlines it for me.
Njtasker - Universe take note13.73 billion years since the creation of the stuff that is making these beautiful otherwordly sounds .... it's purity is crystalline ...
Roseability1970 - this could be their best album yetIve loved Radiohead for what seems like forever. This album is unique. Its absolutely magical and beautiful and i cant stop listening to it. It is perfect.
Mamamark - NiceTurned up my nose at new Radiohead stuff for a while.
Listened to this on the plane and loved it.
Very mellow but at the same time experimental.
If you expect “The Bends” you won’t get it.
What you will get is some heart felt tunes that sound a million miles away from the band’s origin.
Ear candy.
Nick_GC - Emperors new clothesSheep. If Radiohead were a new band on the scene this album would be panned. And I rate Radiohead as an exceptional band too, or did do. This is not the innovative music I expect of them. Like REM before them, this is the beginning of the end… they should know better.
Danmallin - In bloody credible!!!Too good! Just too god damn good! The best band of a generation. Please please never Stop making music...
Isaacaiden - BeautifulKeeps rewarding repeated listens like all their best stuff
Deltoro75 - The Bends.......it is not...again all a bit dull, go back to the good stuff boys
Crewat58 - Hauntingly BeautifulYet again Radiohead have demonstrated their ability to inspire and move people in a way very few bands can. AMAZING! Thank you Radiohead!
Paul G Bowers - Just love itRadiohead have always possessed the ability to transcend space and time and take you to the dark side of the moon. This is simply epic.
Humangham - Too goodGreatest album of the year - unparalleled early 20th century rock
Essexraveman - Their best yet!Let's be honest, Radiohead are not everybodies cup of tea and sometimes, even for their own fans their music can be difficult to listen too. This album is probably their best, a stunning blend of melancholy, musical complexity, lyrical and vocal beauty. I hope this album receives the recognition it deserves!
Dangerous Dave G - Going downhill.... Reminds me of the intelligent kid at school that just switches off and cant be arsed anymore.... sorry boys you ceased to be relevant a long time ago...
