[Dalton]

In the hood, we call that "spot on."

 

[If you shout...]

Once more.

Woop woop. What would you give it? Honest question.

I feel like a 7.9 is pretty close to how I personally am taking this record.

 

[Dalton]

Yeah, I'd be right around there. Perhaps a little lower.

 

[If you shout...]

I've really enjoyed listening as this record has kind of unspooled, for me. It shows remarkable, often stifling restraint, and when it finally opens up, even if just for a few fleeting seconds (something like a few brass flares in "Codex," when Thom opens up his singing voice on "Give Up the Ghost," etc.), it feels incredibly powerful.

 

[lazarus]

I guessed 7.9

I wrote a hit play!

 

[Dalton]

I was born on the moon. Twice.

I saved Latin.

 

[BoMac]

I love when that sweet guitar gently kicks in halfway through Separator.

 

[Jive Turkey]

I can't make up my mind on whether I like that guitar part or not. I think the tone isn't really doing it for me

 

[martha]

Apparently I need to listen to it more to even get interested in it.

 

[the tourist]

I wish upon two listens that I heard anything memorable enough to really want to revisit this album many more times.

It sounds like that Broken Social Scene tone you hear on World Sick, for my money.

You're flat broke, bitch.

 

[PhilsFan]

This is true. I just did some finances today. My net worth has improved, I'm worth -$15,000 now after paying off some debt.

 

[Dalton]

Does that figure include your expected debt after graduation or your current debt? What will your degree be in? Will you graduate on time?

 

[PhilsFan]

Current debt. My degree will be in broadcast journalism. I will graduate either on time or one semester early.

 

[Dalton]

Yeah, you're fucked.

 

[PhilsFan]

America!

This is why I heavily drink after dinner on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.

[Dalton]

Oh shit. If you connect all the red, blue and green dots it spells "New Album Next Month". If you connect the orange and teal dots it spells "Go Fuck Yourself, Laz"

 

[lazarus]

Looks like a map of where all the Indian tribes were forced to relocate to.

Be brave, little yellow triangle!

[GirlsAloudFan]

I fucking love Codex.

 

[PhilsFan]

I fucking love Codex.

I was just listening to that.

 

[Diemen]

I fucking love Codex.

That horn flare (you know what I'm talking about) is gorgeous. One of the most beautiful bits of sound Radiohead's ever put to record.

 

[iron yuppie]

I fucking love Codex.

As soon as I get back around a piano, I need to learn the main riff. Thom really has a knack for evocative but simple piano lines.

 

[PhilsFan]

I love the piano line on the live version of Like Spinning Plates.
