Radiohead - The King of Limbs (2011)


So Radiohead dropped this with pretty much no warning. It leaked sometime in the past week, was originally intended to come out today, buuuut ended up being released (officially) yesterday. Eight tracks, only 37 minutes long. It's their shortest full-length album so far.

The tracks are all very dreamy-sounding, instrumentally reminiscent of The Beatles at times, with abstract lyrics as per usual-- all against some of the most curiously distinctive electronica we've heard from them yet. God Thom Yorke is amazing.

Listen;

1. "Bloom" – 5:15
2. "Morning Mr Magpie" – 4:41
3. "Little By Little" – 4:27
4. "Feral" – 3:13
5. "Lotus Flower" – 5:01
6. "Codex" – 4:47
7. "Give Up the Ghost" – 4:50
8. "Separator" – 5:20
