King of Limbs
vibe: ah, radiohead. it’s not easy to do a critique on arguably one of the best bands of all time, and luckily, this album doesn’t really require any harsh words. it’s not as innovative as many of there albums, and it’s a bit heavy on the ambient, electronic noise, but thom yorke’s voice and lyrics as usual bring it all back home. it’s music to drift off to, until a certain tone or phrase hits you in the gut and wakes you up again. not the best radiohead album, but a great reminder of why they’re the biggest band in the world.
try this: morning mr. magpie
standout track: codex
lyrical gem: “i’m such a tease, and you’re such a flirt. once you’ve been hurt, you’ve been around enough.” - little by little
