I bet right now I feel how other people feel when they read my reactions to a new Kanye album

Brilliant album after one listen. I imagine it's only going to grow on me.

There are many standout tracks. Ful Stop, Decks Dark and The Numbers are my favourites so far.

I'm loving this so far. Really excited for this and looking forward to repeated listens.

I can see some ppl saying that it's not covering new ground for them, but at first listen it sounds great and is closer to my ideal version of Radiohead than TKOL.

Wait, True Love Waits is on this?

I'm only up to The Numbers; it's taking everything in me not to skip straight to True Love Waits.

This is basically perfect.

This is a great post.

"Ful Stop" is probably my favorite so far. And "Glass Eyes". I'm only one listen in and already think it's a keeper, a marked improvement from King of Limbs. Remarkable in its quiet focus.

Tinker Tailor has a really beautiful Kid A / Amnesia sort of swell to it. Gorgeous.

Good post.

If true, Daydreaming just became even more crushing.

If what is true?

Two seconds in and I am loving this. It's gorgeous beyond believe.

Right now I think every track except for Desert Island Disk is pretty great with Daydreaming, Glass Eyes, Identikit, Present Tense and True Love Waits behind my favorites.

zeb,

really?!

[Mike]

I don't wanna do any rankings right now before I lived with it for a while but if it holds up it might end up pretty high in my list.

I'm trying to re-listen to IR right now to get myself interested in this, and it is not working at all. It sounds so lifeless and dull to me. Still mystified by how anyone could think this is anywhere near the few albums that came before it.

And all of zeb's praise isn't helping matters either.

[Mike]

You think Bodysnatchers, Nude and Reckoner sound lifeless and dull? I just can't get behind that at all. In Rainbows is Radiohead at their most soulful.
