I have OK Computer but it doesn't do too much for me. I've probably listened to a few songs from all of the albums as well. They definitely seem talented but it's not for me.

Yeah The Bends and OK Computer are pretty good. Fuck the rest though.

KID A is the only album that has really, truly moved me in any way. The rest are the mark of great musicians, but there's no emotional attachment there for me.

Last year we were asked to write a theme tune for the Bond movie Spectre.
Yes we were. It didn’t work out, but became something of our own, which we love very much.
As the year closes we thought you might like to hear it.
Merry Christmas. May the force be with you.

Don't think it will be on the new album, but still so good :cloud9

I'm a little disappointed, only insofar as this style is my least favourite version of Radiohead. That being said: very curious to see how it plays in context.

This song is pretty good and definitely makes me curious where the album could go. By the way, here's the artwork for Burn the Witch:

I have a weak spot for orchestra when it's mixed with alternative rock/pop, and this just so well arranged. The dissonant strings at the end are so haunting.

Really curious about the album. Everything about it has been really cool so far.

Loving this song as well. I wonder if Burn the Witch will be on the new album. So the new album is releasing digitally on May 8th and the new album will then be released physically on June 17 according to nme. Also, Special edition and standard pre-orders are available from http://www.radiohead.com

I think it will be, but a lot of people are asking the same question though, so who knows.

Daydreaming reminds me a bit of the Interstellar soundtrack. In a good way.

I'm on my second listen right now.

It's gonna take a few listens to take it all in, but I really enjoyed the first listen. There are some spectacular songs and moments on this album. Some nice surprises throughout, and the production and orchestration are stunning.

After listening to the new album for more than 20 times, I have a feeling that this is going be one of my all-time favorite records. Not a single filler track. It's almost criminal to name favorite songs since it would be a discrimination toward others! "Daydreaming", "Glass Eyes", and "True Love Waits" are absolute magics. "Burn the Witch" gets better and better. I am already addicted to this album, and I'm the guy who thought they could never top "In Rainbows".

Yea, I was going to wait before making a statement like that, but after a few days of intense listening I'm pretty sure this is my favorite album of this decade so far. Which is crazy, because Kid A is one of my favorite albums of the 00's and OK Computer is one of my favorite albums of the 90's. It's just so beautifully restrained and well put together.

The run from Ful Stop til Present Tense is absolutely incredible. Every single song on that run could be my favorite song on this album. Decks Dark is very impressive as well. It took me a few listens to get used to the new version of True Love Waits, but it absolutely destroys me every time I listen to it now. I love Daydreaming in a very personal way, I only wish they didn't place it so early on the album. Desert Island Disk is the only song that stands out to me as less amazing than the rest, but I still like it a lot.

If I had to pick my favorite songs I'd pick: Daydreaming, Decks Dark, Ful Stop, Glass Eyes, Identikit, The Numbers, Present Tense and True Love Waits

If I'd had to rank the albums I'd place this album behind OK Computer and Kid A, and above In Rainbows. The first two mentioned took years to grow on me though and are 2 of my all time favorite albums now, so who knows how I feel about this album in a few years.

Have to agree with all the hyperbole going on around here. It really is that good. And I've changed my mind about "Burn the Witch", only because it's so unrepresentative of the album as a whole that it's a pleasant change of pace.
