Hey, /mu/. What's your opinion on A Moon Shaped Pool? Or Radiohead, for that matter.
I like Radiohead. A moon shaped pool is their third best album.
i wanted lift
>>65243546
5th best Radiohead album
too short in particular glass eyes
I'd be interested in an expanded demos edition
>>65243546
I revisit it every 3-4 days, and I like it more every single time. It'll be one of those albums I listen to every couple months for like a decade. Same with In Rainbows, which I still listen to every 2-3 months.
>>65243592
I've found especially with the help of their latest output that Radiohead's music really grows on you with repeated listens
>>65243546
I was worried I would be disappointed after so much hype, but it's really solid.
Every radiohead album has a single song I dislike except this one. Good stuff.
>>65243546
its really good. i like it and listen to it quite a bit
jey jey -
with all this new live footage going up from the last two weeks - is any of it not-to-be-missed outstanding? on youtubes
>>65243546
I really liked this record, but it got boring really quickly.
>>65243546
shit
Radiohead are the most banal and insufferable band. They're literally *THE* entry-level, gateway band to 'proper' music, and their naive fans need to stop projecting all this bullshit onto them as if to say they're anything more than that.
If you consider yourself a Radiohead fan, then you simply need to listen to more music beyond the scope of the /mu/ essentials and P4K. Radiohead are white bread and nothing more.
>>65244036
>They're literally *THE* entry-level, gateway band to 'proper' music
How is this a criticism? Entry-level isn't inherently bad, it just means accessible enough to appeal to those less familiar with art rock
>>65244036
Radiohead own the 90's and the 00's and they sure are better than pretentious bandcamp shit
>>65243546
Like Radiohead, hated the album. Found it too slow, boring, and one-dimensional. One of the most disappointing albums I've listened to recently.
I'll admit this was the first Radiohead album I listened to, since Burn The Witch caught my attention, and I enjoyed the whole album. reminded me of Damon Albarn's Everyday Robots, in its repressed tone and gloominess, but definitely more rock-oriented.
>>65244095
"I just browsed /mu/ for the first time" : the thread
>>65244276
listen to the other albums right now man, you're missing out
>>65244276
AMSP is minimalistic crap imo. But there other albums are great.
>>65244036
>>65244095
>>65244273
Y'all fell for the bait.
Is it summer already?
>>65244370
>subtlety is bad!
>where are all the loud bangers and club remixes?
>>65244436
Right because that's definitely what he meant since there's only minimalism and head-bangers
>>65244354
I checked out Kid A right after I got through AMSP, good shit. Couldn't get into OK Computer though, but I'm going to give it a relisten
Should I try Amnesiac in the meantime?
>>65244004
Obviously not the best quality but here's some I enjoyed:
>Nude - the beginning is cute for one, but it actually ends up being a fantastic performance.

>Glass eyes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPSAaVsTIqM
>Exit music was nice
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lal6AHWGozo
>Identikit is sexy tbqh
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSwGJz9U8Mw
>Like Spinning Plates
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcNIv9XPg7M
>>65244489
If you liked Kid A, you are gonna like Amnesiac and also In Rainbows because everyone likes In Rainbows.
Give Ok Computer more time, chances are that you will end up loving it.
>>65244489
amnesiac is disjointed but pyramid song and life in a glass house are certainly amongst two of the best radiohead songs.
not the previous anon, just a fan
>>65244527
Oh yeah, I forgot true love waits, if you can tolerate the fuckwits screaming at the start.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpTZ3M17RAY
AMSP: pretty good f a m
Radiohead: one of the best bands i've ever heard
>>65243546
why are you asking what's /mu/'s opinion on radiohead? they are like the most discussed band here.
>>65244545
>>65244572
Thanks for the info, grabbing the albums now
>>65243641
Fucking this. I hated Kid A and HTTT the first time I listened to them. By my sixth or seventh run through I was hardcore jamming out with no shame
>>65244718
yo, if you can check their b-sides too, imo the b-sides from amnesiac are up with their best work.
>>65244036
White bread is objectively the best bread
>Muh fiber
>Muh Paleo
Kill yourself
Reslly good album. Don't think tinker and true love waits work well together. Individually good songs, but probably would have been better if another song replaced one.
Desert island reminds me of six organs of admittance. I like it now.
Would have been a 10/10 if lift somehow made it on there.
It is a largely uninspiring album that manages to stick in my head so I keep going back to play it. And it seems to get better every time, but it's not without its flaws (I'm not a huge fan of the soft singing, for example).
>>65243546
My dad compared it to "cafe music"
Its ok but im not a huge fan. In Rainbows is much better
>>65245402
whats his aotysf?
>>65243559
This
>>65243546
It's probably the worst name they could ever give. I can't even say it correctly
>>65243546
I don't think it's bad, I just like their other albums better.
>>65244436
>m-muh subtlety
Kek
>>65245938
Not muh subtlety, more like there is nothing wrong with it.
>>65244036
I love this copypasta
>>65246108
Yeah, but when an album is so boring I have to force myself to sit through the whole thing then there is something wrong with it. AMSP is just plain lazy. Thom could shit out an album like it once a year.
>>65246382
How is it lazy?
>>65246382
AMSP is lazy indeed. I was expecting them to don't give a fuck about what people said about TKOL, kept going doing their thing and exploring new things.
This album is just fan service to please everybody, no wonder 95% of the radiohead lover enjoy it.
After 6 listens the album doesn't hold up and it becomes really dull to listen to. 5/10 at best.
Indentikit is the only good song Radiohead has ever recorded
>>65248108
>indentikit
>>65243546
>>65243546
It's top tier material in my book. Not their best ever of course but really damn good.
>>65244738
HTTT is easily one of the best things they've ever done and ever will do.
>>65249779
Speaking the truth, my man! Can't believe they haven't played WIEAYB yet this tour.
Love it
The singles are the worse tracks on the album though
Moon Shaped Pool is a pretty good album, perhaps a little too polished and consistent for its own good, the songs can blend into each other.
It's a slow burner to be sure though, it's not an immediate listen like a lot of Radiohead's other releases.
Anybody else think the tracklisting doesn't flow well? Like BTW to daydreaming feels awkward
>>65249963
That particular transition is awkward, but I dunno where else you'd put burn the witch. Aside from that I have zero complaints.
>>65249963
what tracklist you propose?
>>65249895
Can see why people might not like btw, but daydreaming? It's pyramid song/reckoner tier imo.
>Top tier
Burn the witch
Decks dark
Ful stop
Identikit
The numbers
>Good tier
Daydreaming
>Ok tier
Desert island disk
Present tense
True love waits
>Meh tier
Tinker tailor...
Glass eyes
>>65251205
It just seemed like a song I'd listen to in the backround or something and not really pay attention to.. A little underwhelming
>>65251831
What the fuck
really forgettable and average, nothing interesting.
the only redeeming track is Decks Dark and it's not even that good.
2016 would've to be a really shitty year for this to be in my top 50-100.
>>65244036
look mom, I posted it again dot jpg
>i numerically number albums
>i put songs in to tiers
>i rate and rank albums from best to worse
>>65252830
he is a patrician, though. you cannot deny his good taste. his opinions have been cross checked by the finest music experts on 4chan
Objective radiohead ranking
Kid A> OKC> AMSP=IR>Amnesiac> Hail To The Thief> The Bends>>TKOL>>>PH
daydreaming was the only good song. after hearing it first, I was expecting the album to be god tier. was let down ;~;
NEXT
>>65243546
more like a moon shaped poo
>>65252911
>was let down
hey, there's nothing wrong with let down!
>>65252972
let down is my favorite song of theirs :3
>>65243546
I can't really grasp this album yet, but Radiohead as a whole is a pretty damn good band. Only recently discovered them.
In Rainbows is amazing.
>>65252884
>Can't get into TKOL
opinion disregarded pleb. that's their best album, they just forgot their fanbase was too plebian for something as interesting as that.
