"Burn the Witch" was nice, but this new track is pretty enthralling. The piano lead is great (and I don't normally like Radiohead's piano/acoustic-based songs), the little guitar textures add some wonderful color, Thom's lead vocal is good, and the strings towards the end propel it to a great finish. The only thing I don't like is the silly little manipulated vocal lines that they seem so fond of since "Everything in Its Right Place." It rarely works well for them, but they keep using it.

Both of these songs feel very average to me. I mean, they sound nice, but there's just not much happening compositionally to my ears. Most of their sound effects are pro forma at this point. Disappointing.

Yeah, Yorke has gone full-on wine-drenched hobo at this point.

Relax. We were joking. It has nothing to do with the music.

I haven't listened to the new one yet, but I liked that first one a lot.

I preferred Burn the Witch, but both of these are great.
