Radiohead, A Moon Shaped Pool: new album, out now - Page 7

pepper_green · 05.13.2016, 05:25 PM

"Idioteque" is the jam my friend.

Severian · 05.13.2016, 05:31 PM

I'm pretty sure my favorite songs are:
1. Ful Stop
2. Decks Dark
3. Burn the Witch
4. Identikit
5. Daydreaming
6. The Numbers

... Not sure about the others. I can't warm to True Love Waits. There's no way this is the best take of the song. The song feels plucked from another era because it is. The different arrangement fails to modernize the song. Instead, it feels like a really lazy remix of the old version. Like they pulled another "Morning Bell" double up, only this time the two versions are separated by a generation instead of six months.

Black Star is terrible but its tolerable live

I don't get how your can isolate tracks on this record. Sure, there are songs i like more than otjers BUT i still feel this record is a composition. The songs must be heard as one, as the build and flow in and out of each other. I can't imagine listening to any of them isolated or even out of order

I know what you mean, but I just find the parts in between the great parts to be pretty tiresome. It may indeed be meant for full album listening, but I just HAVE to skip through some of these songs.

It may be that I usually listen to music while driving to and from work, and tearing all over hell to different assignments and events throughout the day. This means I usually want to listen to something with a real pulse to it, because I need to keep my energy up. So when I'm driving around and I hear "Hey it's me, I just got off the train..." I'm like NEXT!!!

I haven't listen to the album straight through on headphones yet. Maybe I'll enjoy the slower bits more once I do that.

Slow your roll, grab some beers or blunts or whatever gets you into your Charles Emmerson Winchester III mode, and just let this record marinate on slow burn.

Ouch! I feel like that is one of the singularlybest moments on this record.

Its better on a good stereo

I feel Radiohead is like a part time thing to some people. why are all the non-fans insulting when they themselves aren't posting anything worth a shit. I can understand if the fanfare is outweighing your favorite bands posts but, it's not. it's our 85 percentage against your 0 percentage.

tha hell you gots that's new that's better? it's not a bargain unless you throw in your chips too.

I'm a reasonable man get off my case...

Severian · 05.13.2016, 10:34 PM

My thoughts are misguided and a little naive yeah
I twitch and I salivate, like with myxomatosis
You should put me in a home or you should put me down
I got myxomatosis, I got myxomatosis

Severian · 05.13.2016, 10:35 PM

Yeah no one likes a smart arse, but we all like stars...

I know all you people. all your information is written HERE!

I haven't heard it yet, but sounds like True Love Waits is like when Motion Picture Soundtrack finally landed on lp in unrecogizable form. Hmmm.

Btw, I love Black Star. Seriously. That song is so hated on but I've always loved it.

SuchFriendsAreDangerous · 05.14.2016, 12:14 AM

I was waxing nostalgic about my "rediscovery" of radiohead..

It was 2000 and as part of promo for Kid A they put out a half hour special of part of a live set that featured the new material. I will never forget it. Some Saturday night, 1030 pm.. ktla channel 5.. this show comes on and only a few other times in my entire life has my mind been so blown or my life been so singularly changed. This is not hyperbole. I didn't know music could exist like that.

Did the band perform in kind of a sideways "box" lined by what appeared to be string or Xmas lights? If so, I know the one you're talking about.

It's a LOT like the motion picture soundtrack thing, only in my opinion the result is much less satisfying.

Ok, I've seen this one, but it's not the one I was thinking of.

The one I was thinking of was definitely more like From the Basement. Live, with no visible audience. The band played in a stage sea framed by string lights, and it was fucking enchanting. Probably a late night MTV thing. From 2000.

Now I want to find that. Like, really bad.
