Radiohead | A Moon Shaped Pool

[matt reeder]

This is a goddamn masterpiece. I feel comfortable putting it up there with OK Computer and Kid A in the pantheon.

[epilogue]

I do really like the title.

[Mojopin]

Positively great interview:

"Back in the studio, the youthful technicians are checking things over. Jonny, ever restless, is in a brass-studded leather chair crouched over his home-made sound machine (little hammers hitting various objects) and its accompanying laptop, and Ed is listening to him in front of his long row of guitars. Jonny establishes a rhythm, part-calypso, part-reggae, with his yoghurt cartons, tubs, bells and mini-tambourine. “Sounds a bit like Marvin Gaye”, Ed comments."

Yes

[iweartwoshoes]

A whiteboard shows only a list of tracks in black marker pen, starting with “Daydreaming” and ending with “Burn the Witch”

should have stuck to this.

Nah I love Burn the Witch as an opener. Those very first string notes coming out the gate are so good

Yeah, I'm not crazy about the album, but even I think you'd be crazy to move that from the opening spot.

[chewm]

It works perfectly as an opener.

[ridleybradout]

It also ensure that the first word on the album is 'stay' and the last word is 'leave'.

[tragabigzanda]

Top 10 maybe?
Hello Morning
Close Captioned
The Kill
Place/Position
Do You Like Me?
Latest Disgrace
Recap Modotti
Nightshop
Break
Life & Limb

I'd maybe bump Life & Limb for Epic Problem

[bodysnatcher]

That's clever and all, but I just don't find it to be a very engaging song.

that's 'tragic'

[gardenparty]

The "stay" "leave" thing is interesting enough but couldn't you also read it as "stay" and "don't leave" ?

[EJ]

This album hasn't grabbed me like I hoped it would. Spectre would probably be my favorite tune had they chosen to include it. At this point, Decks Dark is still the one that appeals to me the most. Burn The Witch is not too far behind.

[swan]

Today's the day. Will they have strings with them? Play the album in full? Excited to see the setlist come in.

[Chris_H_2]

Tour opener: Burn the Witch

[Chris_H_2]

No strings

AMSP being played in order at the moment
