Radiohead - The King of Limbs (2/19/11)

[Ray Abed]

This is my first official thread on the BDR forums, and what better way to start the ball rollin' than one about Radiohead's new album.

So excited. I pretty much like everything the band has ever done. Wasn't all that hot on their last album, though (and their debut, which I don't really count as a Radiohead release...).

Not liking In Rainbows is like not liking life. Otherwise I can agree with your above statement.

You are among friends here Ray.

[Ray Abed]

Thank you, Howard. I've been meaning to join the boards for awhile now. Don't know why it took me so long.

Let me clarify my statement: I like In Rainbows, but it was sorta a disappointment after the mindfuck awesomeness that was Hail to the Thief. That said, Radiohead's weakest material is better than most bands' best.

[Howard]

Have you merged OK Computer and In Rainbows yet? HIGHLY recommend.

Not yet. I think that would make a great segue way this weekend right before I listen to the new stuff.

Holy shit it's Ray!

Pre-ordered yesterday. Can't wait to get blitzed and listen to this on Saturday.

Also: welcomes to Ray!

[V]

I am in full and total compliance with Ben's plan...

Welcome aboard, Ray... with us, you shall find biting social commentary, a cavalcade of whimsy, and pics of hot cosplay chicks.

Have fun...

Ah, Mr. Abed. Welcome, welcome. Warms our hearts to see you here, sir, and we look forward to more posts from you!

Raaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm so getting that album! And I liked In Rainbows. It really grew on me...

[Ben Thomas]

In Rainbows might be my favourite album of theirs/the last decade.

[Ed Hocken]

Holy shit, I just noticed Ray was here.

[Captain Russ]

Will be part of Caturday's listening party. Really enjoyed In Rainbows, looking forward to this.

I'm not up to there, but it's my favorite since Kid A. I still have to listen to Hail to the thief though...
