Radiohead – A Moon Shaped Pool

[Danny Boy]

What the hell is that?

The last track on the OKNOTOK cassette is actually computer data, and that's what you get when you run it on an old Sinclair computer.

 

[lazarus]

Have to say, the sets of late are a bit of a bummer, I'd be disappointed to see them now and only get three AMSP tracks. Get that they're promoting OKNOTOK but come on!

Cash grab dinosaur act...just like Shuttlecock.

Sad!

 

[LemonMelon]

Their most recent set had four songs from AMSP, five songs from OKC, six from In Rainbows, two songs from Kid A and two from The Bends, with the rest getting a song or two. The only issue one could possibly have with that ratio is In Rainbows taking center stage when OKC and AMSP are what's being promoted, but complaining about getting six In Rainbows songs at A Radiohead show is probably the cringiest first world problem in existence.

That Glasgow set is 10 times better than what I got on the King of Limbs tour.

My OKNOTOK boxset arrived. My god, it's so beautiful. So much effort has gone into it. I think I paid $160 AUD or so for it, it's easily worth that. Cannot wait to sit down with it.

Jonny posted that on Twitter, he thought it was hilarious. I love it except In Rainbows isn't accurate at all.

 

[iron yuppie]

KoL is perfect.

 

[LemonMelon]

In Rainbows made no sense, but the OK Computer one was genius. Had a good, hard laugh at HTTT too.

 

[Joey788]

I love the OK Computer, Amnesiac and A Moon Shaped Pool entries too.

 

[cobl04]

AMSP and Amnesiac are so good.

 

[kabigon]

HTTT is the best one undoubtedly.

In Rainbows came out 10 years ago today.

 

[martha]

That was funny.

Hey, we're not malnourished!

Was this ever discussed? I've always loved Bloom and this takes it to another level imo...

Thom Yorke's solo albums are now on Spotify, so I finally heard The Eraser. I dug it.

 

[intedomine]

I dug Eraser for a while when it came out. I seldom listen to it much these days (never really enters my mind to do so), but I really should revisit it.

The final three songs are the best three on the album, for me:


And it rained all night
Harrowdown Hill
Cymbal Rush

Such a stellar trio.

 

[Joey788]

The Eraser is the only one of Thom Yorke’s solo work that does anything for me. I would add the title track as one of that album’s best songs.

 

[cobl04]

I've never heard it, I don't think.

I thought his last solo album was great. Nothing super special but a satisfying spin I gave plenty of listens.

 

[LemonMelon]

How have so few Radiohead fans heard The Eraser? It's definitely better than the band's weakest material.

 

[lazarus]

You mean Pablo Honey?

Not exactly a high bar.

 

[iron yuppie]

Cymbal Rush is a fantastic song. Radiohead should have had a go at that one in the studio.

 

[nielsgov]

The title track is great. And I agree with LeMel, every Radiohead fan should listen to it.

 

[LemonMelon]

You mean Pablo Honey?

Not exactly a high bar.

Pablo Honey is a perfectly serviceable alternative rock album from 1993. Yes, it's dated. Yes, what came later is better.

But I don't think Radiohead has anything close to a bad album so, yes, I'm saying The Eraser maintains that standard of quality.

 

[Kieran McConville]

Analyze is epic.


That is all.

The Clock

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Harrowdown Hill and Black Swan are my two favorites from that album. You bitches.
