6. RADIOHEAD - THE KING OF LIMBS
As ever, this was a real occasion. It just seemed to fall from the sky at the last minute, released to great surprise. Refreshing and inspiring.
As for the music, of course it's a return to the electronics of yesteryear and it feels better every time I listen to it. It's so compact at just 8 tracks and that's nice. You can't beat a tight album.
I believe that a movie should be made in honor of this one, as it feels so much like a soundtrack, it's just nuts. I also think it could be perhaps the best sequenced Radiohead album ever. Also it's the biggest grower.
Like I said back in April (sometimes I don't like to write in the conventional style by the way)
"There are stuttering beats but it's nice. I like it. The voice of Thom Yorke didn't quite grab right hold of me at first earshot listen."
Takes time. Give it time. A certainty to stand the test of time.
